Supreme Court on Thursday directed all State Boards to notify the scheme for assessment within 10 days and declare the internal assessment, like the timeline specified by it for CBSE and ICSE. The top court further directed the state boards to declare the results of internal assessment by July 31.
"We're passing General order for all boards. We direct the Boards that schemes be formulated and notified in 10 days from today and also declare the internal assessment results by 31st July, like timeline specified for CBSE and ICSE", a vacation bench comprising Justices AM Khanwilkar and Dinesh Maheshwari ordered.
Meanwhile, the Apex Court also questioned Andhra Pradesh regarding its decision to hold Class XII examination “tentatively in July last week”. The court sternly said that the state should have ‘a decision and concrete plan’. “How can it play with the lives of students?”, asked the Court. Adding that it would hold the state responsible in case of any fatality, the Supreme Court said, “may order compensation amounting to Rs 1 crore… if there is even one fatality”.
