CBSE 12th result latest news
While the anxiety among CBSE students is high, the
ambiguity around marks moderation policy refuses to die down. In a
recent development, Delhi High Court directed CBSE
to prepare result of students who have appeared in Board exam as per
the policy in place when the students submitted the exam forms. This
last minute order by the High Court has brought relief among CBSE
students but has also sent a frenzy as this may lead to delay of CBSE
class 12 board exam result declaration. CBSE will consult HRD Ministry
over the issue.
What is CBSE Marks Moderation Policy?CBSE had last year in December requested MHRD to do away with the Marks Moderation Policy. In simple terms, the Marks Moderation Policy allowed grace marks to students who needed a few marks to pass in the exam and also allowed grace marks for difficult questions or erroneous questions asked in the exam. The policy had resulted in the increase in number of students who scored more than 95% marks in 12th board exam which also led to increase in cut off marks at major universities including University of Delhi.
CBSE had sought MHRD’s help to develop a consensus among state boards as well on the marks moderation policy as it believed that a unilateral removal of marks moderation policy would put CBSE students at a disadvantage during college admission. MHRD had called a meeting with state education secretaries and chairmen of all state boards on April 24 to determine if the state boards should also discontinue the practice of grace marks.
According to PTI, a bench of Acting Chief Justice
Gita Mittal and Justice Pratibha M Singh passed the interim order to
continue with the Marks Moderation Policy on a PIL filed by a parent and
a lawyer who contended that the policy should not be done away with
this year, as decided by some states, since it would affect the students
of Class 12, particularly those who have applied for admissions abroad.
Now, CBSE will consult MHRD over the issue and will make a final call
on the result declaration.
Whatever be the final decision, the wait for students is not over
yet. The result will not be declared today as predicted by many media
outlets and forums. However, it is expected that CBSE will soon update
about the result declaration date.
