As a positive move to avoid unnecessary pressure and unhealthy competition among the students, the Council for the Indian School Certificate Examinations (CISCE) has also announced to discontinuation of releasing the merit lists for classes 10th and 12th, starting this year.
The announcement came from the board officials on Monday.
The results for CISCE Class 10 and 12 board exams were announced Monday morning in which the pass percentage saw a marginal increase from last year.
CISCE Chief Executive and Secretary Joseph Emmanuel stated, "We have discontinued the practice of issuing merit lists for board exams from this year. The move is aimed at avoiding unhealthy competition among students."
The CBSE had last year stopped the practice of announcing merit lists for both these board classes.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, when board exams were not conducted due to the closure of schools and students were marked using alternative evaluation methods, both CBSE and CISCE had not issued any merit list.
However, the practice was resumed after the schools reopened.
