The SSC Board had withheld the results of these students stating that the school did not even have a laboratory. The students had claimed that the board had not intimated the board about the re-exam till Wednesday.

The board officials however had denied this, stating that of the total 234 students (not 253), about 200 sat for their test. ``Results will not come immediately since we suspect the eligibility of some students. Only after the enquiry to be held on July 17, we will declare the results.''

The board ruled out any oportunity for those who failed to turn up. One of the student maintains that following the Express Newsline report, all students on Thursday approached the board and got intimation about the date and centre. The results of these students were withheld because according to the board officials the school had arbitrarily alloted marks tothe students without even conducting the science practicals on March 11.
