Students were expecting their results on 8th April

Petitioners alleged discrepancies in evaluation process

Justice Trivedi and Justice Pankaj Mittal were part of the bench

The Supreme Court of India has put a stay on the board exams being conducted for Class 5, 8, 9 and 11 by the Karnataka School Examination and Assessment Board  (KSEAB). The examinations were complete. The students were expecting their results on 8th April. However, even before the results were published, the Supreme Court issued a stay by overturning the decision of the High Court. 

The schools have been advised not to publish the results. This is until the next hearing, wherein a decision will be reached with regard to this legal dispute.
