A class 12th commerce student of Madhya Pradesh education board will knock the doors of court, after receiving ‘negative response’ from education department for solving problem in his mark-sheet.
The students complaint had brought board’s negligence to light, as it was found that his mark-sheet showed 18 marks out of 80 marks in ‘Book keeping and Accountancy’, whereas the answer-sheet totalling showing 22 marks.
“It was the last chance for me to save my year and continue my studies, but despite of the fact that negligence is at the end of checking examiner, I will have to suffer losing a year of education,” the student said.
Shubham Dhiman, 17, student of MB Khalsa School attempted class 12th MP board examination for the academic session 2018-19. His mark-sheet showed 18 marks with 16 marks in practical that gave him a supplement in accountancy subject.
Being sure of at least getting passing marks, he applied for re-totalling. However, there was no change in the marks. Still not satisfied with the re-totalling and filled the form requesting answer-sheet. The received answer-sheet showed totally as 22 marks.
With 22 marks in theory and 16 in practical, his totalling would have been 38 marks, which would have cleared the class for him.
“There are 13 to 14 questions, which are 70 percent correct and no marks have been allotted for steps,” Shubham said. He approached class teacher Parvinder Kaur at school sharing the answer-sheet. Teacher also noted the questions and mentioned that evaluation is flawed.
In such a case, the student got supplementary holding back his year. He had urged the department to update the mark-sheet with the noted re-totalling marks. However, the department replied to his request quoting ‘Madhya Pradesh Madhyamik Shiksha Adhiniyam 1965 Section 119’ that does not allow them to take his request into process.
The letter received is signed and undertaken by assistant secretary of Madhyamik Shiksha Mandal. “I am left with no other option than to approach court and I have to try, unless I want to lose my year and become de-motivated to ever study again,” Shubham said.
