Supreme Court refuses to direct CBSE to disclose answer keys

NEW DELHI: The Supreme Court on Friday refused to direct the CBSE to disclose answer keys of the questions of the All India Engineering Entrance Examination ( AIEEE) prior to declaration of the results.

A vacation bench of justices BS Chauhan and Swatanter Kumar dismissed the petition filed by some of the students and asked them to make representation before the board in this regard.

Advocate Somesh Arora, appearing for the students, contended that on the line of IIT-JEE, the answer sheets of the examination should be declared prior to the declaration of results.

The court, however, was not convinced and asked the petitioner to approach the board which will consider their representation immediately.
