"We get orders from the state government in this regard from time to time. This time we got a reminder on February 19 that students who have less than 75 per cent attendance should not be allowed to appear in final examinations," university registrar Waqar Ahmed said here today.
He said all affiliated colleges had been directed to send the name of students who have 75 per cent attendance in the current academic session.
Some university sources said that the move could affect around five lakh students.
