Punjab Technical Edu, DCom answer sheets gone missing
Lost and (not) found: 983 DCom papers missing
Lahore, July 19, 2008: The future of 983 students of diploma in commerce
(DCom) is at stake, as the bundle carrying their answer sheets have gone missing
during its transportation from Lahore to Vehari by the Punjab Board of Technical
Education (PBTE) officials, it was learnt on Friday.
PBTE Controller
Asad Butt said that the bundle was lost during while it was being taken to the
checkers, and that the board was holding an inquiry on the issue. He said that
students would be compensated for the loss with marks in accordance with their
result percentage in others papers.
One of us: A PBTE official said that the board administration had made efforts to find the missing
papers, but in vain. He said that the board's Secrecy Branch was responsible for
the loss. He said that it was not for the first time that answer sheets were
'misplaced'. However, he said that the officials had failed to recover the
papers this time. He said that the board officials were facing problems in
compiling results, and were under pressure as the board had decided to announce
the result in August. Another PBTE official said that someone within the board
must have misplaced the papers because no outsider was allowed to enter the
PBTE's Secrecy Branch.
No delay: Asad Butt said that the board had
dispatched the papers for checking, and had put the bundle on a bus at the Nawan
Kot bus station. He claimed that when the board officials reached Thokar Niaz
Baig, they discovered that the bundle was not there. He said that the officials
had tried their best to find the papers, but failed. He said that the answer
sheets were of different subjects of DCom, and that enquiry on the issue was
still underway. "Such mishaps are not unusual. We have a lot of pressure on us
as we have checked 349,000 papers of 47,000 students," he said. However, he said
that result would not be delayed. "We were going to announce the result on
August 25, but now it will be declared on August 8."
Board's law on
missing papers: Asad Butt said that according to the law, all affected students
would be given marks in accordance with their result percentage, but if a
student was not satisfied with the result, he/she could reappear in the
examination without paying the examination fee. He said that no one could use
the missing answer sheets for his/her benefit, as the papers were from across
the province. "It is difficult to identify the papers," he added.
A
number of DCom students, enrolled in various institutions, said that the news of
lost answer sheets had increased their tension.
Kamran Khan from Raiwind
Technical College said that the incident had exposed the the technical board. He
said that students from his college had contacted the board officials to find
what the board had done for them, but they did not get a satisfactory
reply.
Sadia Sheikh from the Jain Mandir Poly Technical College said that
DCom students applied for admission to bachelors in commerce (BCom) or bachelors
in finance disciplines on the basis of their result. "All the institutions have
announced their schedule of admission, and now we are worried about our
result." Daily Times

"i thinks so, that its was a plan students and examiner. The students who gave the papers they have no proper study, and they know that they will be failed. So, they make plain with examiner. They also gave a lot of money to the examiner for this work."
