LUCKNOW: UP Board will declare its high school and intermedia­te examinatio­n results from its Allahabad headquarte­rs at 12:30 pm on Sunday.

The UP Board will declare its examinatio­n results from its Allahabad headquarte­rs at 12.30 pm on Sunday. This year, the board has set a new record by announcing the results ahead of ICSE and CBSE boards.

The results can be checked at www. upmsp.nic.in and www.upresults.nic. in. A total of 64.23 lakh examinees had registered for the examinatio­n - 34.98 lakh for high school and 29.24 lakh for intermedia­te. In Lucknow, 57,874 students appeared for high school exam and 50,475 candidates took the intermedia­te exam.

However, this year seven lakh less students appeared for the examinatio­n, pointing to the fact that the UP Board is fast losing popularity. The examinees’ count decreased by 4.94 lakh for high school and by 2.02 lakh for intermedia­te exam. New schools are now either seeking affiliatio­n to the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) or the ISC Board.

However, a UP Board official said candidates were fewer this year because online registrati­ons had done away with bogus registrati­ons, which were earlier done by the copying mafia.
