HC allows girl to be promoted

MADURAI, OCTOBER 04, 2018 00:00 IST

The Madurai Bench of the Madras High Court allowed a petition filed by the father of a girl who sought a direction for promotion of his daughter to Class 10. Justice V. Parthiban ordered the promotion.

The petitioner, D. Alagusubramania Raja of Sivaganga, claimed that his daughter, a student of Kendriya Vidyalaya, was asked to re-write the Class IX Mathematics paper after she failed in it. The school also asked her to re-write the Science paper as she had secured low marks.

The student is said to have cleared both the papers in the re-examination. Though the girl had cleared her Mathematics examination, the school authorities denied promotion.

The school said if the overall marks were taken for Mathematics she would be clearing the examination, but she had failed to get the minimum if the internal assessment and written examination marks were considered separately.
