SRINAGAR: Jammu and Kashmir Board of School Education (BOSE) is likely to declare the results of Class 10 to 12 in the next two weeks.
Officials privy to the development told The Kashmir Monitor that preparations for the results are in the final stages. “It will be declared on time. The process of results is in full swing. I can say preparations have entered into the last stage,” said a top officer.
Class X exam in soft zones of Kashmir concluded on April 5. More than 63500 students appeared for the matriculation exam. In August last year, the government shifted the academic session to March in sync with National Education Policy (NEP). Exams in hard zones started on April 8. Hard zones are those areas that are snowbound and not reachable. Since access to the area was difficult during March, the government decided to hold their exam separately.
“Technically only a month and a half has passed since the exam has ended in both hard and soft zones. Though the soft zones exam concluded on April 5, the hard zones started later. We are compiling the results of both zones. We have fast-tracked the process. Hopefully, the result will be out soon,” said the officer
This comes at a time when CBSE has already declared results of Class X and XII. Jammu and Kashmir government has provisionally promoted students to the next classes to avoid any academic loss.
As per the ‘Uniform Academic calendar, the students who appear in Class 10 and 11 examinations shall be provisionally admitted in Class 11th and 12th respectively after the conclusion of the Board examination.
According to a government order, students, who are declared unsuccessful shall be permitted to continue their studies in Class 11th and 12th till the result of the Biannual/Annual Private examinations is declared.
However, the provisional admission of all those candidates who fail in the exams will be canceled. They shall have to clear all the backlog for fresh admission. “In respect of the candidates who fail to pass in Bi-annual examination, provisional admission shall be canceled,” the order said.
