No re-exam,AIEEE results in a weekc

A group of AIEEE candidates,who appeared for the exam after a delay of three hours due to the question paper leak on May 1,had sought cancellation of both the examinations first and second phases on the ground that the students were compelled to give the exams under circumstances violative of their fundamental rights.

On May 1,the examination was postponed after authorities detected the leak. The exam was scheduled at 9:30 am,but was rescheduled to begin at noon the same day.

The next day the government came out with a notification that the AIEEE exam will be re-conducted on May 11 for candidates who could not appear for the exam on May 1.

The petitioners contended that the government was conducting two AIEEE 2011 exams under two very different conditions one in adverse and disadvantageous condition,marked by chaos in which 97 per cent of the total candidates appeared,while the other in which only three per cent candidates were allowed to appear on May 11 in an undue advantageous position.

They argued that a large number of students were not able to appear in the re-scheduled test,and a single merit list could not be made on the basis of two separate examinations. The court,however,was not impressed by the argument and said around 10 lakh students took the test.
