Indian Institute of Technology Madras conducted the entrance examination (JEE advanced 2017) on 21st May 2017 and published results on 11th June 2017. My son had written the examination and qualified. An unprecedented 18 marks were given as bonus marks to all the students, which has affected ranks. Of these 18 marks, 7 marks were given to 2 questions for printing inconsistency. in certain question papers. The examination is conducted in two languages (English and Hindi) and each language paper has 10 codes (0 to 9). These inconsistencies were in the Hindi versions only and award of bonus marks is contentious and is being debated widely and now is in the court. I was able to download the question papers from the internet. Of the 20 codes, I was able to download 17 codes (all except code 1,3 and 6 of Hindi version). I wrote to the Chairman Dr. Prem Bisht, he was kind to give me the three codes (1,3 and 6 of the Hindi version) I requested on 18/06/2017. The other codes (as below) were downloaded from the internet. To be sure of the inconsistencies, I wanted access to the original question papers. As I need the question papers to obtain clear information to clarify and substantiate that the printing errors from the original papers, I am filing this petition to allow access to this information. I am attaching my correspondences with Dr. Ptrem Bisht, the organising Chairman of JEE advanced 2017. Kindly allow access to JEE 2017 advanced question papers (All codes (0 to 9) in English and codes 0,2,4,5,7,8 and9) to get information on printing inconsistencies from the original documents as this matter is in the court.
