The UP Board chairman Neena Srivastava informed that a circular that is doing rounds on social media on promoting class 10th and 12th students without results is fake. However, the results will be declared soon after the lockdown period ends, she said.
As per the circular, the Uttar Pradesh Board (UPMSP) will declare as passed all students who appeared in class 10, 12 exams.
The circular says, “Due to the situations arising after coronavirus outbreak, the board has decided to promote all the students who appeared in the class 10, 12 exams. The students’ marksheet will not have any divisions or marks, but will only be mentioned as promoted.”
“The evaluation process is halted and will begin after the lockdown gets over on April 14. We will try to declare the results within first week of May,” the official mentioned.
Around 1.47 lakh teachers were involved in the evaluation process of around 3 crore answer sheets in 10 days, the official said. The class 10, 12 results were earlier set to be released on April 24, 2020.
Once the result will be declared, the candidates can check the results by visiting the website at upmsp.edu.in, upresults.nic.in.
At the same time, the Uttar Pradesh government has decided to promote all students of classes 1 to 8. “Orders have been issued to promote all students, studying in schools run by the basic education department, of class one to eight to next classes without examination. All schools have been closed till April 2,” Additional Chief Secretary, Education Renuka Kumar mentioned.
About 56 lakh students have appeared in Class 10, 12 board exams that were held from February 18 to March 6, 2020.
