The Karnataka State Examination and Assessment Board (KSEAB) has reduced the number of answer sheets to be evaluated per day to 50 for each evaluator of class 8 and 30 for each evaluator of class 9. The board issued an order in this regard on Thursday.
Earlier, each evaluator of class 5 had been instructed to check 80 answer sheets per day, evaluators of class 8 had to do 60, and evaluators of class 9 had to do 40.
Teachers had opposed the KSEAB order which had allotted less than a week for the evaluation of around 1.66 crore answer sheets of class 5, 8, and 9 board examination (Summative Assessment-2). The Hindu published a report in this regard on March 28.
