Bhubaneswar: The Odisha government will soon form an expert committee to determine the modality for various evaluation of the cancelled Plus II exams, School and Mass Education Minister Samir Ranjan Dash stated on Saturday.
The announcement came a day after the government cancelled the annual exams because of the COVID-19 situation.
The minister told the media that Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik has given the directive for the constitution of the expert committee.
“As the Supreme Court has directed CBSE and CISCE to finalize the mode of evaluation within 15 days, an expert committee will be formed within 15 days to finalize common evaluation criteria after reviewing the evaluation methods of CBSE and CISCE,” Dash added.
However, an alternative evaluation method in Odisha is problematic as no internal test for Plus II second-year students have been conducted and most of the Plus II colleges within the state have not conducted any examination for first-year students.
Asked about this, the minister clarified that the expert committee will look into these points before finalizing the evaluation method.
“After the expert committee submits its final report, we will immediately execute its recommendations and try to announce the results as early as possible so that our students will be able to take part in the national degree entrance tests,” he stated.
