The results of the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) class tenth were declared on Monday. All the CBSE schools in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar secured 100 per cent results. However, the board had not declared the date of the result and hence the sudden announcement of the result on Monday created a chaotic situation among students and parents. Earlier, the class 12 results were declared and within an hour, the results of class 10 were declared.
The teachers and the parents were expecting the results to be declared on May 20. However, the results were declared seven days earlier. The results of the CBSE schools in the city are 100 per cent, said the principals of the schools.
