The Supreme Court on Thursday
refused to direct the Central
Board of Secondary Education to
conduct a fresh All India Engineering Entrance
Examination, which was mired in
controversy after its question
papers were leaked.
A vacation bench of justices G S
Singhvi and C K Prasad dismissed
the petition filed by some
students who approached the
apex court after they couldn't
appear for the test which was
rescheduled after leakage of
questions.
Refusing to interfere in the
examination process, the court
observed that around 10 lakh
students have appeared for the
examination and they would
suffer because of fresh
examination.
The students approached the
apex court challenging a Delhi
high court order which
on May 18 had refused to stay
the declaration of AIEEE results.
The CBSE had submitted before
the high court that, "decision
taken by an examination
conducting body on basis of
material and information
available to it is beyond the
scope of judicial review as the
said body is the best judge of the
situation and the manner of
dealing with the same."
"If the board had decided to
cancel the examination for all 97
per cent candidates (who
appeared for exam on May 1),
this would have caused
inconvenience and hardships to
vast majority of students," CBSE
had said.
A group of AIEEE candidates, who
had appeared for the exam after
a delay of three hours due to
question paper leak on May 1,
had sought cancellation of both
the examinations (1st and 2nd
phase) on the ground that the
students were compelled to give
the exam under adverse
conditions and circumstances,
which is violative of fundamental
rights.
On May 1, the examination,
conducted by CBSE, was delayed
by three hours following a paper
leak. The exam was scheduled at
9.30 am but was rescheduled to
begin at 12 noon on the same
day.
The next day the government
came with a notification that the
AIEEE exam will be re-conducted
on May 11, only for candidates
who could not appear for the
exam on May 1.
The question paper was
reportedly being sold in the open
market in Lucknow
and a man was arrested by Uttar
Pradesh Special Task
Force.
