Continue grace marks policy, Delhi HC tells CBSE

​New Delhi : In a major relief to students who have just taken Class 12 examinations, the Delhi High Court on Tuesday directed the CBSE to follow its 'moderation policy' of giving grace marks to students for difficult questions.

The court asked the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) to continue with the policy which was in place when the examination forms were submitted last year.

A bench of Acting Chief Justice Gita Mittal and Justice Pratibha M Singh passed the interim order on a PIL filed by a parent and a lawyer contending that the policy should not be done away with this year.
