Bihar Board 10th paper evaluation begins tomorrow, will take 7 days to finish work, says BSEB chairperson

Bihar School Examination Board (BSEB) will begin the evaluation process for class 10th board exam answer scripts from Wednesday, May 6 onwards amid lockdown. With the resumption of evaluation work, candidates of class 10th Bihar Board exam can expect their results soon.

Bihar Board class 12th results for all streams i.e., arts, science and commerce have already been declared on March 24.

“We are trying to find out possible ways for carrying out evaluation work. Since we have around 25% of answersheets unchecked, less number of evaluators would be required for assessment. A week will be enough to settle the remaining work,” BSEB chairperson Anand Kishor told HT.
