Parties decry Jammu and Kashmir Board’s move to ‘deny’ Class 10 exam cards to students from schools on govt. land

Jammu and Kashmir’s political parties on December 15 accused the Lieutenant Governor’s (L-G) administration of denying hundreds of students the chance to appear for the Class 10 board examination in Kashmir.

These parties alleged that the Jammu and Kashmir Board of School Education rejected Class 10 examination forms from students enrolled in private schools situated on State land.

“Deeply troubled by the Board’s refusal to accept Class 10th exam forms from students in private schools established on state land. Disregarding a High Court stay order raises serious questions about fairness and their motives. It seems intentional to jeopardize the future of countless students,” Peoples Democratic Party president and former J&K Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti said.
