Minister for General Education V. Sivankutty has criticised the boycott of Plus Two higher secondary Chemistry answer script valuation by a section of teachers in May.
The boycott of valuation camp by teachers without any notice was an attempt to sabotage the publication of results, the Minister said, adding that this was unacceptable. Strict action would be taken against those who boycotted the valuation.
Mr. Sivankutty said the department had not come to the conclusion that the first answer key was incorrect. A 15-member committee of teachers had prepared a new answer key for Chemistry only because complaints had been raised.
