UP Board Result 2024: Applied for scrutiny? Beware of fraud calls promising marks, cautions board

NEW DELHI: The Uttar Pradesh Madhyamik Shiksha Board (UPMSP) has once again cautioned students and their parents against phone calls by cyber fraudsters claiming to increase their marks and pass them in exchange for money in the scrutiny process of Class 10, 12 results 2024.

The board asked 10th, 12th candidates who applied for the scrutiny of UP 10th, 12th results 2024 and their guardians to inform the district school inspector in case they receive such phone calls.

“The general public is informed that some of the candidates who appeared in the High School and Intermediate examination of the Board of Secondary Education, Uttar Pradesh for the year 2024 had applied online for scrutiny of their answer sheets. Cyber fraudsters are making malicious attempts to defraud some examinees and their parents by luring them to increase their marks and making them pass without failing and demanding money,” the board said in an official statement.

UPMSP said that an FIR will be filed against the ‘fraudsters’ once the students report to the administration. “Therefore, all the candidates and their parents are requested not to take any cognizance of such phone calls from cyber fraudsters and never fall into temptation. On receiving such phone calls, immediately inform the District School Inspector of your district so that a First Information Report can be lodged against such cyber thugs,” it said.

Students who were not satisfied with their UP Board 10th, 12th results 2024 were given the opportunity to apply for scrutiny of answer sheets by May 14 at upsmp.edu.in. UP Board Class 10, 12 results 2024 were declared on April 20. 89.55 percent of Class 10 students passed the exam while intermediate candidates recorded 82.60% pass percentage this year.
