“In this regard, CBSE would like to express its concern that it would be really unfair, unjustified and discriminatory for students who have studied Informatics Practices instead of Computer Science to be put at a disadvantage by reducing 2.5 per cent marks from the percentage aggregate marks,” Joshi said.
Seeking review of the decision by the University, the CBSE chairman also suggested that a team of experts may be asked to examine contents of both the courses.
“In absence of any discrimination by the CBSE between these courses, it is imperative that the course contents may kindly be examined by a team of experts and both the courses may please be treated at par so that students who have studied Informatics Practices are not discriminated against at the time of admission,” he said.
Joshi mentioned that such a rule did not exist when the students chose the subject. “Academically and administratively, this seems like a gross injustice.”
