India Engineering Entrance Examination (AIEEE) results for candidates
who appeared for it on two different occasions earlier this month.
A division bench of Chief Justice Dipak Misra and Justice Sanjiv
Khanna said, "At this stage we are not inclined to stay the result
process."
The court will further hear the matter on May 20.
Earlier, the same bench rejected a plea for stay of the second phase
of the examination that was re-scheduled for May 11.
Meanwhile, the human resource development ministry and Central Board
of Secondary Education (CBSE) filed their replies, which will be
considered by the court on next date of hearing.
A group of AIEEE candidates, who had appeared for the exam after a
delay of three hours due to a question paper leak on May 1, approached
the high court for 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 a.m. but
was rescheduled for 12 noon on the same day.
The question paper was reportedly being sold in the open market in
Lucknow and a man was arrested by Uttar Pradesh Special Task Force.
The organizers had conducted another examination on May 11 only for
those aspirants who were not able to appear on the first day and
restrained the students who had already appeared for the exam. IANS
