The board helped two other students, whose forms were withdrawn by their schools as they had low attendance. While one could not attend school regularly because of disputes between their parents, the other missed classes because he suffers from a rare disease. “We considered their cases and allowed them to appear for the exams,” Upasani said.

While the diabetic students are giving their exam now, the four others have been advised to appear in July. Upasani said, “This way the students will get additional time to study and will still be eligible for admission along with others in August.”

The father of one of the students said, “A day before the exam, my son was not sure he would be able to write his papers. The principal of his college guided us to the board and we spoke to the officials. They counselled my son and he is confident now. He is doing well.”
