Mangaluru, Apr 12 2019: The second PU exam results,  exact date is not yet final and will be announced shortly, stated a senior department official.

The Education department has urged candidates who have registered for the CET, but failed to clear their PU papers, to not give up.

“Students can still write the CET as they can clear the subjects in the supplementary examination,” the official said.

Nearly 6.73 lakh students had registered for the II PU exam.

A total of 1.94 lakh candidates have registered for CET. Karnataka Examinations Authority officials, however, anticipate that many students who have registered for the CET may drop out.

Several students have welcomed the early announcement as it will allow them to secure college admissions faster.

The results were scheduled to be announced this week, but were delayed as P.C. Jaffer, who was the Director of the department, was transferred on Wednesday as Mandya Deputy Commissioner.

SSLC evaluation started :  The evaluation of class 10 examination papers began on Wednesday.  However, nearly 14,000 evaluators across the State did not report for duty.

The department has issued a warning to them. Evaluation work will not take place from April 17 to 19 as teachers have been roped in for election duty as well.
