NEW DELHI: The fate of at least 1.5 crore school-leaving students hangs in balance as chaos over moderation of marks grows. Amid indications that CBSE may move the Supreme Court against the Delhi HC order asking it not to do away with the moderation policy+ this year, several other school boards are likely to delay announcing Class XII results as they wait and watch the developments.
The UP board decided on Wednesday to follow whatever call CBSE takes while the Council for the Indian School Certificate Examinations, which normally declares its results by mid-May, seems to have a similar strategy.
Adding to the uncertainty is CBSE’s silence on whether the moderation muddle will hold up its Class XII results. Delay in results+ will have a spiralling effect, hitting the admission calendar.
