Candidate gets 101.66 marks out of 100 in MP recruitment exam; job aspirants protest

INDORE: Job aspirants have staged a protest in Indore, raising questions over a candidate getting 101.66 marks out of the total 100 due to the adoption of “normalisation” process in a Madhya Pradesh government recruitment examination.

The protesters have alleged fraud in the recruitment examination and demanded a fair inquiry.

Normalisation is a process for ensuring students are neither advantaged nor disadvantaged by the difficulty of papers they write. The process involves revising the score of a student in a way that it becomes comparable with the score of another.
