Maharashtra board decreased the marks for the Arts and Culture in class 10 board exams

Under the revised rules for awarding the extra marks to the students of class 10 who excel in arts and culture, the government has decreased the marks limit to 15 marks from 25 marks which were given earlier. In addition to the additional marks given in sports, in March 2017 the board for the first time gave extra marks for the arts and cultural activities to the students of class 10. Under the system, nearly 80,000 students benefited from the extra marks and as many as 193 students received the 100 percent marks in the exams.After the results were declared, principals of several schools admitted that students benefited extremely from the policy of extra marks and this leads to their high scores in the exam.The new decision of awarding 15 marks instead of 25 marks will come into effect from SSC exams due in 2018.
