Saudi-Based Student Moves Supreme Court Over Withheld CBSE Class XII Result

He asks the court to direct CBSE to apply its March 27 West Asia assessment scheme or order special exams to protect his university admission.

Overview

  • The writ petition was filed in the Supreme Court on June 4, 2026 by Pransu Jigarkumar Patel, a private improvement candidate from Al Jubail whose Class XII status showed as “R.L.” when CBSE declared results on May 13.
  • CBSE issued an Assessment Scheme on March 27 to award marks for cancelled West Asia exams using quarterly, half‑yearly and pre‑board records and to allow special exams where needed.
  • Patel had registered for five improvement papers and sat Physics and Chemistry but could not appear in Mathematics, English and Computer Science after those exams were cancelled for security reasons in the Gulf.
  • The withheld result has affected his admissions timeline: he registered for a B.Tech CSE & AI programme on May 2 and the university required an updated Class XII result by June 1, which he could not provide.
  • Patel says he made repeated representations to CBSE on May 17, May 21 and May 30 and first approached the Delhi High Court during vacation without urgent listing, so he now seeks a court direction to declare his result or hold special tests.
