Bhubaneswar: The results of Plus Two arts and commerce examinations, conducted by the Council of Higher Secondary Education, Odisha, will be declared by the first week of June.

Last year, the results were declared on May 30.

School and mass education minister Badri Narayan Patra on Tuesday said the publication of the results would be delayed because of some disruptions in the process. "We are yet to publish the results of Plus Two arts and commerce. The results are getting delayed because of the manual entry of marks," he said.

On May 19, the council had declared results of Plus Two science examinations. After declaration of the results, Patra had informed that the results of Plus Two arts and commerce were likely to be declared by the last week of May.

The Plus Two annual examinations were held at 1,106 centres across the state between March 6 and 29.
