The Rajasthan Board of Secondary Education (RBSE) is understood to have cancelled the exams of 24 applicants who applied for the board exams this year. Their exams had to be cancelled as the candidates were reportedly found to be involved in unethical practices. The candidates who were detained for taking copies of materials to the exam centre and sending dummy candidates to appear for the exam had to face harsh consequences. The board recently issued a press release, highlighting the specific reasons behind the cancellation of the candidates’ exam.

According to the press release, of the applicants who were enrolled, 10 were registered for the Class 10 Board Examination 2024 and 14 were registered for the Higher Secondary Examination.

The examination of five candidates from Class 12 test was cancelled. The examinations of four other Class 12 candidates also had to be cancelled.

Similarly, the exams of 10 candidates who appeared for the Class 10 exam this year were also cancelled and the individual candidates were prohibited from appearing for the board exam until 2026.

This year, the Rajasthan Board’s Class 10 exams were held from March 7 to 30. Exams of Class 12 were held from February 29 to April 4, 2024.
