The West Bengal government had prepared a new list after the HC, in May 2024, had quashed the inclusion of as many as 77 communities in the previous lists. More than 1 lakh candidates are awaiting the WBJEE result 2025 for admission to engineering colleges.
WBJEE board chairperson Sonali Chakraborty Banerjee had earlier clarified that the board was ready to publish the results on June 5, but subsequent legal proceedings over the OBC reservation policy delayed the entire process.
Several students had also expressed their concerns over the delay in the WBJEE result 2025 declaration. They said it has been over three months since the exam was held for admission to undergraduate engineering courses in West Bengal colleges, and prolonged delay caused them mental stress and anxiety.
The WBJEE 2025 exam was held on April 27.
