“The operation of the impugned order shall remain stayed till further orders,” the court said while issuing notice on the plea.

In March, a division bench of the Karnataka High Court had allowed the state government to conduct board exams for Classes 5, 8, and 9 under state syllabus, thus setting aside the single bench order that quashed the government’s order to conduct examinations. The High Court had directed the state government to resume the process of exams from the point where it stopped.

However, the Registered Unaided Private Schools Association (RUPSA) had moved the Supreme Court again challenging the division bench order of the High Court.

The KSEAB had introduced ‘centralized annual examination’ for classes 5 and 8 in the previous academic year, while the government introduced the same for class 9 and first PUC through a notification in September 2023. As per the notification, no student shall be detained in case he/she fails.

In such a situation, the school is directed to inform only the student and the student’s parents about the results. However, for the first PUC examination, the board will be conducting a supplementary examination at the college level, if a student fails to get the passing mark.
