Madhya Pradesh HC imposes Rs 2,000 fine on Class 12 answer sheet assessor for laxity

The Madhya Pradesh High Court imposed a fine of Rs 2,000 on an assessor for negligence in the evaluation of an answer sheet. The Court has also instructed the Board of Secondary Education, Bhopal to issue revised marks list with increased marks.

A single bench of Justice Sanjay Dwivedi said in a terse comment that the evaluation of the answerbook is an act of extreme responsibility, hence negligence is inexcusable.

The Court has clarified that the assessment should be done with utmost caution and such carelessness will harm the future of students. The loss of self-economic damage will deepen the sense of not repeating the mistake for a long time, the court remarked.

During the hearing of the case in the High Court, petitioner Satyaprakash Chaudhary, a resident of Jabalpur, presented his side. The petitioner’s counsel argued that the petitioner is a brilliant student. He was given only 30 marks in Chemistry in Class XII, which he was not satisfied with.

Therefore, a new head was called for evaluation. Despite this, relief was not given while making excuses. Hence the Petitioner has approached the High Court.

On the direction of the High Court, a system of fresh evaluation was given to the Petitioner in result of which Petitioner’s 5 marks increased after fresh evaluation. In this way, the marks of Chemistry subject increased to 35.
