Protests Erupt in Srinagar Over JKBOSE Result Discrepancies

Srinagar, J&K (Indian administered Kashmir): Hundreds of students and parents gathered outside the JKBOSE (Jammu & Kashmir Board of School Education) Head Office in Srinagar, protesting serious discrepancies in the recently declared Class 10 and 12 examination results.

According to students, preliminary results shown online two days ago indicated a pass status, but the final results released yesterday show them as failed, sparking confusion, outrage, and emotional distress among families.

“How can our names, roll numbers, and subjects be complete in the earlier version—and then suddenly we are marked failed? This is injustice,” said one aggrieved parent during the protest.

Many students claim that the initial results were accessible via a web link shared through official or unofficial channels, and showed accurate marks and “PASS” status. However, when the final result was uploaded on the official JKBOSE website, their status had allegedly changed without explanation.

The crowd outside the JKBOSE office included students from across the Kashmir Valley. Protesters demanded immediate clarification from board officials, transparency in the evaluation process, and the establishment of a grievance redressal mechanism.

“We work hard under already stressful conditions in Kashmir. If this is how our futures are handled, what are we supposed to trust?” said a Class 12 student from Srinagar.

As of now, JKBOSE has not released any formal statement regarding the alleged discrepancy, nor has it confirmed whether the earlier result links were authentic or internal drafts.

The incident has once again raised concerns about the credibility of the education system in the conflict-affected region, where frequent disruptions, political pressure, and digital blackouts already strain the academic environment.

Independent observers have called for an immediate inquiry and third-party review of the result publication process to restore public confidence.
