Mumbai: Ending days of uncertainty, Maharashtra School Education Minister, Rajendra Darda Friday said the Maharashtra State Board of Secondary and Higher Secondary Education (MSBSHSE) would announce the SSC (Class X or Class 10) results on June 17.
Last year, the Maharashtra State Board of Secondary and Higher Secondary Education that conducts the examination had announced the results on June 7. However, the results were delayed this year and had caused worry among the students.
The delay is said to be because of some unavoidable technical glitches, and also as most of the staff were earlier busy in electioneering.
Interestingly, a court order had already warned the respective boards not to delay the examination results due to elections.
Apart from retirement of seven of their senior officials, there were several goof ups in the student pre-lists and hall tickets which had caused the delay.
In Mumbai region alone, there were 28 SSC students who had received the same seat numbers. This was revealed only after the students began registering for FYJC online admissions.
The students have been issued new seat numbers and will be able to examine their answer sheets after the announcement to ensure there has been no mix up.
Almost all the Indian states have declared the results of Class X and Class XII results in the last month of May. The Maharashtra board too had declared the Class XII results on June 02.
The board had earlier hinted that the results would be declared on June 10. Consequently, the students hooked to the internet, on PCs, laptops and their cells, only to see the blanks on board websites.
About 1.7 million students from more than 20,000 schools in the 36 districts of the state had appeared for the Secondary School Certificate (class 10) or SSC exams held in February/March this year.
Last year the results were declared on June 07. It was the first time in many years, the result was declared in first week of June. In 2012, the SSC results were declared on June 13.
Once declared, the results will be available on the board website and four other websites at the given time. To distribute the load, the board has decided to put the online SSC results on five different websites. They are:
http://mahresult.nic.in
http://mh-ssc.ac.in
http://msbshse.ac.in
http://sscresult.mkcl.org
http://rediff.com/exams
The students need to enter their exam seat numbers to see their results. The students will also be able to take the printout from the website.
The Printed Marksheet will be given to students later on at the respective schools.
The students can also request their results through SMS. For this, they are required to type MHSSC followed by <seat no> on their mobile phones and send to: 57766.
Those who wish to apply for rechecking and revaluation of their marks must apply for it by attaching a true copy of their marksheets.
In all, 17,37,114 candidates from across 20,507 schools had appeared for the examination. The exam was held at 3,812 centres.
