BSSTA general secretary Shatrughan Prasad Singh said it happened because of the carelessness of the board and allowing the primary and middle school teachers to evaluate the answer books of matriculation examination. "The decision taken by the board is injustice to those who have given the right answers as those who answered wrong will also get full marks for nothing," he said.

"We found so many problems in objective-type questions, but we can only guess how many errors were in the subjective ones. We had warned the board and the state government not to rope in primary and middle school teachers, but they didn't pay heed. Now, who will pay the consequences? The board has played with the future of the children," said Singh.

The result will be announced on the official web site i.e will be announced online on Biharboard.ac.in, Biharboardresults.net or Biharboard.bih.nic.in.
