New Delhi: The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has no plans to appeal against the Delhi High Court order on continuation of moderation or grace marks policy, which has delayed the announcement of CBSE Class 12 results 2017.
CBSE chairman RK Chaturvedi had met Jain to seek a legal opinion after Tuesday’s High Court verdict.
The Delhi High Court had ordered the continuation of the moderation policy this year, saying it was unfair to students who had registered for the exam when the policy was still in place. The court order seems to have delayed the CBSE Class 12 results 2017 which were widely expected to be declared on Wednesday.
At a high-level meeting on Wednesday, chaired by HRD Minister Prakash Javadekar, it was decided that the CBSE would take legal opinion before deciding on its future course of action.
Sources have told News18 that the moderation policy has to be viewed at three different levels – grace marks to help students pass in case he or she is missing out by few marks, difficulty levels in different sets and inflation or spiking of marks which is carried out in the garb of moderation.
