Bhubaneswar, May 9: The School and Mass Education department has asked concerned District Education Officers (DEOs) to make school wise analysis of the absence of students in the annual matric examination. As many as 43,489 students reportedly remained absent during the class 10 Summative-2 exams, which began on April 29. Secretary of School and Mass Education department, Bishnupada Sethi today wrote letters to the DEOs to find out the reason behind the non-appearance of the students. Sethi has also asked the DEOs to file the report within 10 days. “The absence of such huge number of candidates in the Annual HSC Examination (SA-II), 2022 is definitely a matter of concern. The absence in the district like Mayurbhanj, Ganjam and Bolangir is highest. It is supposed that these students must have appeared the Summative Assessment-I Examination and must have done the physical form filling work. However, it is not understood how despite making the form fill-up work, they are remaining absent from physically appearing in the Summative Assessment-II Examination. The reason for non-appearing the Examination is to be found out and it can be done only if school wise analysis can be made,” read the letter.
