Bhubaneswar: The Council of Higher Secondary Education (CHSE), which is conducting Plus II exams in Odisha, has decided to publish the results of all four steams on same day this year.
The CHSE has already initiated process to ensure that the results of Plus II Arts, Commence, Science and Vocational, are declared by May this year. The board has taken the decision with an aim to provide enough time to students to make right career choice. The annual Plus II examination in Odisha is scheduled to begin on March 3.
According to sources, the results of various streams of CBSE and ICSE are declared on the same day, which helps students in much better way to make career choices. However, almost every year, there is a delay in announcement of results by the CHSE either due to high number of students appearing for the examinations under the board or other issues like protest by teachers.
Speaking in this regard, CHSE chairman Amarendra Patnaik said, “We are trying to declare results of all streams on the same day in May. We will convert the mark foils into OMR, which will help us upload the documents online in less time and announce the results early.”
The students who are all set to appear for the annual examinations have welcomed the decision and termed it as a praiseworthy step.
Educationists also feel that if the officials of the board show willingness there will not be any difficulty in announcing the results on the same day.
