In an official notice, the board said it is extremely important that after examinations of Class 10 and 12 conducted by the Board, the Mark Sheet-cum-Passing Certificate be issued under the correct demographic details of the students.

Citing that despite providing multiple opportunities to schools and parents to provide correct demographic details of students, the board receives many requests for correction, which are either incomplete, missing supporting documents or contains documents that are not clearly visible. In some cases, schools do not respond after the board asks to send the necessary documents.
