BENGALURU: BC Nagesh, minister for primary and secondary education, on Monday told the legislative council that the government will formulate stringent rules to punish teachers for laxity in evaluating PU examination answer scripts.
Raising the issue, SV Sankanur of BJP, who asked the question on behalf party colleague N Ravikumar during question hour, brought to the notice of the house that the difference in marks after reevaluation was found to be more than six in 1,008 cases in 2019 and 1,540 cases in 2020, but the cumulative fine imposed was a measly Rs 400. He urged the government to blacklist evaluators who were found to have committed errors while carrying out evaluation duties.
