The Board officials had issued clarification that the result available on a website was fake and was a handiwork of some ‘Hackers.’
Srinagar, May 02: The Jammu and Kashmir Board of School Education (JKBOSE) has written to Cyber Police Station Srinagar to investigate the circulation of fake result gazette of class 12th.
Earlier, some miscreants created a fake website and claimed that the JKBOSE has declared the result of class 12th examinations.
The fake link and gazette were circulated a day prior to the scheduled date for announcement of class 12th results.
Officially, result of class 12th examination was announced on May 30 but a fake URL and fake gazette was created by miscreants which created confusion among the students.
Even as the students could find their names on the fake URL, but the marks displayed on the official gazette were completely different.
The Board officials had issued clarification that the result available on a website was fake and was a handiwork of some “hackers.”
However, some students made hue and cry and staged a protest against JKBOSE saying how their credentials were available on the fake URL.
“I am directed to forward herewith a copy of the fake result gazette circulated on social media on 29-04-2024, one day ahead of the actual date of declaration of result of class 12th Annual Regular Examination 2025 and to request you to investigate the matter by locating its URL and bringing the miscreants to justice,” reads an official communication issued by Joint secretary secrecy department (Kashmir) in JKBOSE.
The official communication is addressed to Superintendent of Police, Cyber Police Station Kashmir Zone, Srinagar.
“The circulation of the fake gazette created a lot of confusion, causing fear and tribulations to the students and their parents as well as JKBOSE organisation,” the official communication reads.
Talking to GK, Joint secretary secrecy department Shanaz Chowdhary said the fake url was created by some hackers and uploaded the credentials of the students as well.
“We have officially taken up the matter with cyber-Police,” she said.
