CBSE Board to compensate Class 10 students for typo error in English paper |
The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has decided to provide compensation of two marks to Class X students for a typing error in the English question paper.
Several teachers and students had approached the Board with the plea that the paper held on the 12th of last month had certain errors in the comprehension passage section.
Students had to read a passage and write synonyms for the words endurance, obstruction, and motivation. But the paragraphs they were supposed to look at were incorrectly marked, they had said in an online petition.
A senior CBSE official said, the typing error has been noticed and it has been Board's policy to not let students face any disadvantage.
The marking scheme has been decided in the interest of students and all those who appeared for the particular question will be awarded two marks.
The Class X and XII board examinations began on the 5th of last month and will conclude on 25th of this month.
