All six subjects in class nine and class ten will carry 20 marks for formative assessment and 80 marks for summative assessment - II
The State government on Wednesday issued orders for weightage of 20 marks for formative assessment in class nine and class ten board exams.
All six subjects in class nine and class ten will carry 20 marks for formative assessment and 80 marks for summative assessment - II. The SA-II will be final exam for class nine and SSC public examination, an official release said.
It added that, nevertheless, SA-I will also be conducted for classes nine and ten but their marks will not be considered in final assessment. Only four formative assessments for both classes will carry a maximum of 20 marks. All six subjects will carry a maximum of hundred marks in the ratio of 20:80 for FA and SA respectively. The science subject will have two parts — physical sciences and biological sciences — which will have ten marks each in FA and 40 marks each in final (class nine) and SSS board exam.
The Opposition Congress demanded that the government open the Gandhi Vatika Museum, depicting Mahatma Gandhi’s legacy and freedom struggle, built at a cost of ₹85 crore in Jaipur’s Central Park last year, during the Congress-led regime in Rajasthan. The museum has not been opened to the public, reportedly because of the administration’s engagements with the State Assembly and Lok Sabha elections.
