Jiribam, February 04 2019:
A joint meeting attended by the Management Committee of Borobekhra Govt Higher Secondary School and guardian of the students was held today at the school following the recent order of COHSEM to cancel Borobekhra Govt Higher Secondary School, Jiribam District, from the list of examination centre of Barak valley circle.
In the meeting, School management committee and guardians jointly condemned the shifting of examination centre from Borobekhra Govt Higher Secondary School to Jiribam Govt Higher Secondary School for Manipur Higher Secondary Examination conducted by COHSEM as the concerned authority, after taking due consideration of the financial and family background of the students of Borobekhra Govt Higher Secondary School and the limited number of passenger vehicles available on Jiri-Tipaimukh road and the difficulty faced by the students to rent a room for one month in Jiribam to appear in the exam at Jiribam Govt Higher Secondary School, has allowed to conduct the examination conducted by BOSEM and COHSEM at Borobekra Govt Higher Secondary School as examination centre since 2016 .
Regarding the issue, a memorandum was submitted to DC, Jiribam District by the School Management Committee and the guardians not to cancel Borobekhra Govt Higher Secondary School from the list of examination center.
P Jiten, member of School Management Committee said the order to cancel exam center will never be accepted by School Management Committee and guardians and added that such cancellation order can disturb the mind of the students which are preparing for the Class XII exam in full swing.
He urged the relevant authority to roll-back the order at the earliest failing which mass protests will be launched in a democratic way.
