Kochi: The Kerala High Court on Wednesday cancelled the results of the Kerala Engineering, Architecture and Medical (KEAM) entrance examination results on a petition challenging the amendments introduced by the state government.
The court gave the ruling while considering the petition of a student challenging the changes in the standardisation formula brought in by the state government in preparing the KEAM rank list.
The High Court single bench direction to bring out a revised rank list came out at a time when the admission process was set to begin.
The Cabinet scheduled to meet on Thursday will discuss the matter. Based on the recommendations of an expert committee, the State government had amended the prospectus which provided much relief to the students of Kerala state syllabus students who had raised concerns that they lost up to 30 marks in the standardisation process, which eventually affected their final rank.
The Government introduced changes similar to the model adopted by Tamil Nadu.
