Show cause notices have been issued to school managements across the country by CBSE after around 3,500 teachers refused to show up for evaluation of board exam papers, reports Times Of India (TOI).
Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) secretary Anurag Tripathi added that the authority had “written to the Directorate of Education recommending disciplinary action against schools for more than 200 government school teachers who did not turned up for evaluation.” Fifteen disaffiliation notes have been issued for repeated violations.
A fine of Rs 50,000 will also be imposed on schools for failing to comply with the board's orders.
"In some cases, the schools do not relieve the evaluators, while in some cases the evaluators do not turn up due to their own reasons. In cases where there are genuine issues, the principals of the schools have to recommend the names of other evaluators," said Tripathi.
While there are 1.7 crore copies that need evaluation, on an average, 7.5 lakh copies are evaluated every day. The board has fixed 15 April as the deadline by when the evaluation will be completed.
Tripathi noted that the board results for class 10 and 12 are likely to be announced by the third week of May.
