Udala: Alleged carelessness of college authorities could have cost two Plus II students a year on Friday. Their answer sheets were reportedly left behind in the college and then later carried to the nodal centre in a vegetable bag.
The incident took place at the Indira Gandhi Women’s College in Udala of Mayurbhanj district, where 71 students had appeared for the Plus II English exams. The answer sheets were then sealed and dispatched 69 answers sheets to the nodal centre at Udala after the examination in presence of the college superintendent and supervisor.
The accounts were then transferred to the Department of Higher Education through the local post office.
Later that evening, the exam controller found that the two answer sheets were missing from the bundle and immediately informed the college authorities.
On realizing the mistake, college principal Jayshree Choudhary packed the two answer sheets in a vegetable bag and carried them to the nodal centre in the presence of police.
Speaking to the media, the college principal said that the lapse occurred because of tremendous work pressure on the examiners, who were conducting the exam.
“We will deposit the two answer copies after giving an undertaking that there were lapses in dispatching the confidential documents,” she added.
Nearly, 3,50,800 students are appearing for the Plus II exams at 1,143 examination centres across Odisha this year.
