Speaking to Excelsior, Secretary JKBOSE Ghulam Hassan Sheikh confirmed that:

• The Class 10 result has been ready for the past one week
• The Class 12 result is in its final stages and is expected to be ready within a few days

Over 95,000 Students Waiting

As per official data, nearly 95,000 students appeared in the Class 10 annual examinations last year, conducted across 994 examination centres in Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh.

Break-up of Candidates:

• Kashmir Division (10 districts): 68,804 students
• Winter Zone, Jammu Division: 25,224 students
• Kargil: 660 students
• Leh: 95 students

The prolonged wait has left students and parents anxious, as result declarations are crucial for admissions, stream selection, and future academic planning.

Students and Parents Express Distress

Students say the uncertainty is mentally exhausting.

“For the last week, we are being told that the result is ready, but it has still not been declared. It’s very stressful to wait without any clarity,”

Parents echoed similar concerns, questioning why students should suffer due to administrative delays.

Why the Chairman’s Appointment Matters

Under JKBOSE regulations:

• The Chairman heads the Result Committee
• No result can be officially notified without the Chairman’s approval
• Even if tabulation and verification are complete, legal and procedural norms must be followed

This has effectively put the entire result process on hold.

What Happens Next?

• The government is expected to appoint the JKBOSE Chairman soon
• Once appointed, Class 10 results will be declared first
• Class 12 results will follow shortly after

Officials have maintained that there are no technical or evaluation-related issues, and the delay is strictly due to the vacant Chairman post.
