Rajasthan Teacher Suspended for Grading Scandal in Class 10 Exams

A teacher in Rajasthan has been suspended for awarding marks without evaluating answer sheets in the Class 10 science exam conducted by the Rajasthan Board of Secondary Education. The incident at Mahatma Gandhi Government School prompted swift action by the education department following orders from the Education Minister.

A teacher from Rajasthan's education department has faced suspension for assigning random scores to Class 10 students without evaluating their answer sheets.

Nimisha Rani, a senior teacher at Mahatma Gandhi Government School in Ajmer's Bhagwan Ganj, was suspended immediately after reports emerged that she arbitrarily graded science exam sheets during the Secondary Examination 2024. The Rajasthan Board of Secondary Education condemned this lapse as serious negligence.

The suspension followed direct orders from Education Minister Madan Dilawar, prompting a departmental inquiry into Rani's conduct. This case underscores the importance of maintaining integrity in the evaluation process to ensure fairness and accuracy in student assessments.
