The highest number of students from Mayurbhanj, Ganjam and Balangir districts skipped the exams, the letter mentioned.

“The absence of such huge number of candidates in the Annual HSC Examination (SA-II), 2022 is definitely a matter of concern. The absence in the district like Mayurbhanj, Ganjam and Balangir is highest. It is supposed that these students must have appeared the Summative Assessment-I Examination and must have done the physical form filling work.

The reason for non-appearing the Examination is to be found out and it can be done only if school wise analysis can be made,” read the letter.
