Admissions to Std XI are likely to get stuck over the internal assessment row which is slowly gathering steam, with the state education minister declaring on Tuesday that he will soon approach the Ministry of Human Resource Department (MHRD) and ICSE and CBSE board authorities, and take a final call on excluding the internal assessment marks given to non-state board candidates from the final results. However, parents of non-state board students have now started complaining about the additional marks given to state board candidates for their achievements in the field of art and sports. They are of the view that even these marks should be excluded if the minister aims to bring about a level playing field for the admissions.
