Because their names are missing in the system, pune: At least 21,000 students across the state are unable to submit Class XII board exam forms.
An official from the education department said there are nearly 4,000 such names from the Pune division. In approximately 120 colleges, we found 4,000 students who were not admitted to Std XI last year through the centralised online admission process. The mismatch occurred because these students were admitted to Class XI through offline processes, which are not permitted in Maharashtra , where admissions must be conducted online to track students, according to education department officials. Appropriate action needs to be taken against them so that this practice is not repeated,” said Palkar.
Secondary education director Mahesh Palkar said a meeting was held between govt and education department officials to discuss the issue. School education minister Dada Bhuse said, “Many institutes have accepted offline admissions. Their names will eventually be added but the schools will face the music,” said the official.
A positive decision is expected soon to help the affected students. An inquiry will be conducted into this matter, and appropriate action will be taken against any institutes found to have violated the rules. A decision will be made in the best interests of the students. “Pune division consists of three districts — Pune, Ahilyanagar and Solapur. When these students tried to fill up their Std XII exam forms, they found their data is not visible.
