The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) on Thursday informed the Supreme Court that it would declare the compartment exam results for Class XII by October 10.
The University Grants Commission (UGC) also informed a bench comprising Justices A.M. Khanwilkar and Sanjiv Khanna that it would start the academic calendar for undergraduate courses from October 31 and by that time the retest results will be out.
The top court was hearing a plea filed by Anika Samvedi seeking a direction to ensure that the academic year of these students shouldn’t go waste.
The statements of the CBSE and the UGC assume significance in view of the earlier observation of the bench that they should work in tandem to ensure that the academic year of students appearing for the retest was not wasted.
It had said that the CBSE should declare the results of compartment examinations expeditiously and the UGC ensure that students get admission in colleges.
