The State Information Commission (SIC) has slapped a fine of Rs. 15,000 on Lucknow University for not awarding medal to a meritorious student as convocation was not held. The order was passed by SIC Gyanendra Sharma after the student Alka Bhargava, who had topped M.Sc (organic Chemistry) in 1994, alleged that she was not given the gold medal by the University officials. She also alleged she had a tough time in getting the degree certificate. After University authorities allegedly did not respond to her plea, Bhargava approached SIC, which asked the varsity to pay Rs. 15,000 as fine, official sources said.
