Lapses
On receipt of report regarding lapses committed by examinees, examiner, moderator, teacher or
any other person connected with the activities related to examinations held by the institute,
including breach of the rules laid down for proper conduct of examinations, as the case may be,
Controller of Examinations shall have power at any time to institute inquiry and to punish for such
lapses by declaring the examinees, examiner, moderator, referee, teacher or any other person
concerned connected with the conduct of examination disqualified from any examination work
either permanently or for a specified period or by referring his/her case to the authorities
concerned for taking such disciplinary action as deemed fit. Further, the Principal may
