Haryana Board of School Education, Bhiwani has decided to conduct the supplementary examinations in the month of July instead of September this year.

The decision has been taken to ensure that the students could take admissions further after appearing in the supplementary examinations, said a spokesman of the Board.

The HBSE had on Monday announced Class X results, which saw an overall pass percentage of 50.49 including pass percentage of girls at 55.30 and boys stood at 46.52 percent. In senior secondary exams (Class XII) results, the total pass percentage was recorded at 64.50 percent. The girls had recorded pass percentage of 73.44 while the pass percentage of boys stood at 64.50  percent.

The spokesman said in the results of the annual examinations conducted by the Board in the month of March 2017, those regular students who have received compartment in one subject or those who wanted to improve their marks in one subject or intended to take examination in one additional subject could appear in the supplementary examinations to be held in July. Such candidates could send their application form online through the concerned school or directly to the Board in the prescribed time limit and with requisite fees, he added.

The spokesman said application form through the schools have been invited so that the name of the concerned school could be included in the certificate of the students.

He said in case, the student failed to clear his compartment examination in first attempt, on re-appearing in the second attempt that is in March 2018, the name of school would not be included in his certificate. Instead, he would be considered as a private student and name of his home district would be mentioned in his certificate, said the spokesman.

He said those regular students who have failed in more than one subject could take admission in the same class and appear in the examinations to be held in March 2018 as regular students. Concerned schools have been asked to take immediate action in this regard otherwise they would be held responsible for any kind of delay or inconvenience caused to the students, added he.
