SC's notice to CBSE for charging fees for answer-sheet copies
The Supreme Court has issued a notice to the CBSE on a plea seeking contempt action against the board for allegedly "disobeying" the top court's order and charging exorbitant fees of up to Rs. 1,200 from students for obtaining copies of evaluated answer-sheets.
A bench of Justices Ranjan Gogoi, Navin Sinha, and KM Joseph asked CBSE to respond within six weeks.
CBSE has willfully disobeyed the directions of SC: Plea
The contempt plea has alleged that CBSE has willfully disobeyed the directions of the apex court, which had, in 2016, said the students have the fundamental and legal right to access their evaluated answer sheets under RTI Act.
CBSE had published a notification prescribing fee of Rs. 1,000 and Rs. 1,200 for students of Classes 10th and 12th respectively to obtain evaluated answer sheets.

20 August, 2018
In a recent judgement in Writ Petition (Civil) No. 382 of 2018 delivered on 30 July 2018, the Hon’ble Supreme court of India has ruled that AICTE approval for IGNOU’s B.Tech. degree/Diplomas is not necessary. This verdict has given big relief to the students who had earned their B.Tech Degree/Diplomas from IGNOU.
It is hoped that IGNOU’s B.Tech Degree/Diploma holders, who had faced problems in their respective organizations would get due benefits in recruitment/promotion and further higher studies.
