New Delhi: Earlier, this month, the Delhi High Court admitted a petition to put stay on the declaration of IIT-JEE 2010 results. However, Delhi High Court has refused to put hold on the declaration of IIT JEE 2010 results. The Indian Institutes of Technology (IIT) entrance exam, which was conducted on April 11, came under fire of allegation, due to errors in the instructions for examinees, who took the IIT Joint Entrance Examination (IIT-JEE) in Hindi.
As per sources, a case was registered in the High Court by a non-governmental organization (NGO), Satya Foundation, on April 23. Chetan Upadhyaya, the Secretary and Counsel of Satya Foundation who submitted a list of major errors in IIT-JEE 2010 before the court claimed that the officials of Joint Admission Board were trying to hide the issue, instead of accepting their fault. Chetan also added that the Board refused to re-conduct the examination.
According to Mr Chetan Upadhyaya, Satya Foundation is going to appeal in the Supreme Court, against the decision of the Delhi High Court.
However, on May 2nd, IIT-JEE board took appropriate measures in order to ensure that the genuine candidates were not affected by the examination errors. It designed a point-by-point remedial action and posted the same on the IIT-JEE website. But, the petitioner has asked for a temporary stay on the declaration of the results, till the hearing is going on and also the examination is re-conducted.
