With the SSC exams just two months away, teachers are demanding more time for the paper correction to give justice to work. Currently, one individual gets eight days to correct 300 papers, a task they juggle with regular school work.

Thus, on an average where an SSC student spends three hours writing the paper, a teacher gets a mere three minutes to correct it. That, if they spend eight hours each day on the job. This, according to teachers is becoming difficult, especially where checking language papers is concerned. The issue came to the fore recently with the Maharashtra state board asking examiners to ensure that there are no mistakes in the corrections.
