JAMMU, Mar 31: Describing the decision of CBSE to hold retest of class 12th Economics paper all over the country as unjustified’ and ill conceived, National Panthers Party (NPP) Chairman Harsh Dev Singh today called for a review of the decision in view of lacs of students being affected by the reckless move ordered even prior to the outcome of probe.
Harsh while addressing the press conference said, “If government and CBSE were contemplating to hold retest of class-x math paper only in Delhi and Haryana, then what was the rationale in subjecting all economics students of the entire country to mental trauma of a re-exam without verifying the extent of paper leak scandal.”
He added that how could the government and CBSE be so insensitive as to order a re-exam for all students without ascertaining as to whether the paper leak scam had spread across the length and breadth of the country with all students being involved in the process. He further said that entire student fraternity could not be compelled to undergo the trauma of re-examination for a crime that was committed by a miniscule minority and some unscrupulous functionaries of CBSE. He urged upon the CBSE to immediately roll back its decisions in view of massive outrage sparked all across the nation against its arbitrary and unilateral decision.
