Bhubaneswar, March 30: The annual Plus Two examinations conducted by the Council of Higher Secondary Education concluded today with the end of re-scheduled test for chemistry. The authorities had to reschedule the chemistry and physics examinations following reports of question paper leak.

The authorities had made arrangements to ensure smooth conduct of today’s examination. Examination centre authorities were asked to open question packets in the presence of observers half an hour before the exam. While the authorities have directed the colleges concerned to conclude practical examinations by April 6, the evaluation of answer sheets will begin from April 3. Council sources said the evaluation process would be conducted in two phases.

The first phase of the evaluation process will be held between April 3 and April 13, the second phase of the evaluation process will begin from April 14 and conclude on April 23. The results are likely to be published in the first week of June.
