“Don’t declare results of freshers till a decision is taken on repeaters/failed candidates”, says HC to Karnataka govt

The high court on Thursday asked the Karnataka government not to declare the results of 2nd PUC fresh candidates, till the expert committee constituted on the issue of promotion policy vis-a-vis repeaters/ failed candidates takes a decision in the matter.
 A division bench headed by Justice BV Nagarathna passed this order after the state government and Pre University Education department submitted that an expert committee has been constituted to look into the issue of various categories of repeaters.

The bench pointed out that since the data of 1st PUC marks of repeaters is available, the state government can consider their case on par with freshers, who will be promoted without any examination, solely on the basis of 1st year PUC performance. With regard to private candidates, the bench noted that since no data is available with regard to their 1st year PUC performance, they have to take up the 2nd PUC examination, as and when it is held. The next hearing on the issue will take place on July 5.
