Imphal, August 02 2019:
As a part of its continuous campaign about spreading awareness concerning the lapses and errors of BOSEM in declaring results of Class X examinations, DESAM carried out an awareness drive for students of schools located on Wangkhei side today, apart from organising sit-in protest demonstrations as well.
Students of Wangkhei High School, Royal Academy, St George, St Sebastian, Meitei Mayek School, Laishram Mani School, Suraj Rare Flower High School, Modern Academy and Irilbung High School participated in the protest demonstrations.
Speaking to media persons, DESAM education secretary Shamurailatpam Devdutta Sharma said that education is the most important tool for survival in the society and it is indeed a rather disappointing development that BOSEM has continuously been involved in errors and inconsistencies when it comes to the results of Class X examination which is a turning point for students.
Alleging that the top officials of BOSEM have turned the body into a profit making business, he stated that BOSEM has victimised the students, who are the pillars of the society, by completely disregarding their careers prospects.
He then demanded the officials to resign on moral ground and to replace all the unqualified teachers who constantly fail to properly check answers scripts and tabulate marks .
All board members of BOSEM should resign, he further demanded.
During the protests, the students held placards containing many slogans which condemned the failure of BOSEM to put a check on the rampant mark tabulation errors, the lethargic attitude of the authorities concerned to correct the mistake etc.
