A total of 516 answer papers of history, science and sanskrit examinations were stolen from the principal's cabin at Dahisar's Isra Vidyalaya on April 3
More than twenty days after 516 answer sheets went missing from a Borivli school, Mumbai division of the Maharashtra State Board of Secondary and Higher Secondary Education (MSBSHSE) has now decided to wait for a few more days before deciding the fate of students whose answer sheets have gone missing.
A total of 516 answer papers of history, science and sanskrit examinations were stolen from the principal's cabin at Dahisar's Isra Vidyalaya on April 3.
After the answer sheets of 330 students were found by the Dahisar police on April 15, the Mumbai divisional board is yet to get custody of these papers. "We will get the papers on April 27 from the court, and then evaluate them," said Siddheshwar Chandekar, Secretary, Mumbai Divisional Board.
Chandekar said that the board is yet to decide the fate of the remaining students whose answer sheets are still missing. "We have formed a committee to look into the issue and have decided to wait for further police investigation. If they are found, they will be evaluated. If not, the committee will then take a decision in the issue" said Chandekar.
Meanwhile, Subhash Sawant, Senior police inspector at the Dahisar police station said that the investigation is on and the board will be notified if any more papers are found.
WHAT WAS IT?
- On April 15, the Dahisar police had arrested two persons and detained two minors for stealing answer sheets from Isra Vidyalaya as the accused said that they had done the crime to earn some quick money.
- The state board will decide on a policy for grading students (one way is to give them average marks) only if the police are unsuccessful in recovering the remaining answer sheets.
