Sources in the council said the announcement of board results were delayed as the evaluation procedure took some time. There was a speculation that the result would be declared either on June 9 or June 10.

There were 431,734 students who wrote the matric exams this year in 954 examination centres across the state. The examinations concluded on March 21.

The council is expecting a better performance this year after 57.91% students cleared the exams in 2017, much lower than the pass percentage of 2016, which was at 67.54.

It declared the results of intermediate or Class 12 science and commerce streams on June 7 and 48.34% science students and 67.49% commerce candidates cleared the exams.

The result of Class 12 arts stream is yet to be announced.

“The evaluation process of intermediate (arts) is still going on. Therefore, no date of results can be given right now,” the council’s vice-chairperson Phool Singh said.

This year, 316,369 students appeared in intermediate exams - 92,073 in science stream, 40,173 in commerce and 1,84,123 in humanities - across 436 centres in the state. The exams concluded on April 3.

The council installed closed-circuit television or CCTV cameras for the first time this year at all exam and evaluation centres to ensure transparency. And, the entire procedure from registration to admit card issuance was made online.
