NEW DELHI: The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) today said it was undecided on providing compensation to Class X students for an alleged error in the English question paper.
Teachers and students have been claiming that the paper held on March 12 had certain errors in the comprehension passage section.
The passage section of the paper where students were expected to find synonyms of ‘endurance, obstruction and motivation’ in paragraphs two, four and five, respectively had its answers in paras three and six. Certain typos also led to confusion among students, an online petition started by a group of students said.
Reports were doing round that the board has decided to compensate students for the “error”, however, the board officials clarified that no decision has been taken yet. (AGENCIES)
