Hyderabad: TPCC accused the TRS government of playing with the lives and career of lakhs of students by not conducting public examinations in a transparent manner.

In a statement here, TPCC treasurer Gudur Narayana Reddy said that the government's decision to form a three-member committee to look into the discrepancies and goof-up in Intermediate results was nothing but a confession of its mistake.

Thousands of students have complained that they were either marked 'absent' or 'fail' in the provisional mark sheets although they cleared the exam.

The Congress leader also accused TRS working president K Tarakarama Rao of defending another scam in education department.

"Instead of recommending stern action against those responsible for the goof-up in intermediate results, KTR is ridiculously advising the students to apply for 'recounting or re-verification'.

Any student who is not satisfied with the results will do that naturally. KTR should explain as to why such errors have occurred at the first place," he said.

He also alleged that the job of data and result processing was assigned to a private company Globarena Technologies reportedly on the request of KTR.

He said Globarena Technologies was the same company which failed in examination automation work of JNTU - Kakinada in 2015, causing hardship to lakhs of students.

Despite its bad track record and lack of experience, the same company was assigned the job of valuation of Intermediate results, he added.
