The board conducted the HPBOSE Class 12th exams in March and the results were declared on Saturday.
He also reported that the branch responsible for providing the answer key to the computer processing unit had submitted the wrong key by mistake, which led to inaccurate evaluation.

The real issue originated in the Chuvadi area of the Chamba district, where the English paper was cancelled because the question paper was opened ahead of the scheduled date at a government school. Thereafter, the paper was again conducted. Reportedly, the old answer key was uploaded by mistake instead of the revised one.
“Students need not worry about results. We have found that the maximum students are getting higher scores. If someone gets a lower score in re-evaluation, their grades will remain the same,” Sharma added.
He also stated that the board is taking action against the board responsible for the error.
