Hyderabad: Parents and students staged a protest at Vidya Bhavan, Nampally, the Board of Intermediate Education office, on Monday following the release of the second year supplementary results.
They alleged that there were mistakes in the results as many students had scored less marks than they expected.
Board officials said the marks were given to the students based on their performance and assured that nothing had gone wrong. The board took their applications and said it would check the answersheets again, Shacham Sharma, an Intermediate final year student who was at the protest, said, “I got seven marks in my mathematics paper in the board exams in March. I was given the same marks in the supplementary exams. I wonder whether they have corrected my supplementary paper or have just given me the marks from the March paper. The paper was very easy and attempted all questions and wrote well.” Shacham’s mark list shows he scored above 60 per cent in all other subjects. In mathematics, he has gone seven both in the March exam and the supplementary in the Maths Paper II (A).
There were many students who alleged that there was no change in their marks in the main and the supplementary exams.
The board said the marks were given to the students solely based on their performance. It said it had appointed to three agencies to cross-check the result in parallel before publication. Despite this, officials said, they would check the answersheets of the complainants.
