Supreme Court Orders State Boards to Declare Internal Results by July 31

The Supreme Court ordered the state boards to declare internal assessment results of Class 12 by July 31, making it clear that there can’t be a “fit-all” scheme and each board is free to formulate its evaluation method for students.


The SC said that it would not pass any direction for a uniform scheme for assessment across the country; the state boards have to ensure that the scheme is formulated earliest and before ten days from Thursday. A bench of Justices A M Khanwilkar and Dinesh Maheshwari observed that each board would evolve its scheme.


“We direct the boards to ensure that the scheme is formulated at the earliest and not later than ten days from today and also declare the internal assessment results by July 31, 2021, like the timeline specified for CBSE and CISCE,” the bench said in its order.


The top court was hearing a plea that has looked directions to states not to hold board exams in view of the Covid-19 pandemic. “We make it clear that each board may formulate their scheme. However, we further make it clear that we are not endorsing the correctness and validity of the scheme that will be formulated by the concerned board,” the bench said.
