WBJEE 2025 Results Will Be Declared Soon, Confirms Official
WBJEE Result 2025 Date: A senior education official indicated that steps have been taken for the prompt publication of results. The path is now clear for the publication of the West Bengal Joint Entrance Examination Board (WBJEE) results, following the Supreme Court's July 28 order that stayed the Calcutta High Court's earlier decision to halt the implementation of a revised list of Other Backward Classes (OBCs) notified by the state government, a senior official from the higher education department said on Wednesday. State Education Minister Bratya Basu commented soon after the apex court's order, stating, 'We in the higher education department had already anticipated this and are fully prepared to take appropriate actions immediately." Board chairperson Sonali Chakraborty Banerjee, when asked about the timeline for publishing the WBJEE results, remained cautious yet optimistic. 'Today (July 30), we received the state government directive. We shall implement the directive and let you know about our decision tomorrow (July 31)," she told PTI. A senior education official indicated that steps have been taken for the prompt publication of results. 'We have consulted legal experts, and every step has been taken to accommodate candidates' interests. The results will be out soon," he added. Prior to the Supreme Court's order, Banerjee mentioned, 'We were ready to publish the results by July 5. But then, the legal developments followed, and the matter became subjudice. We were waiting for the government's directive." The WBJEE exams were conducted on April 27. On July 28, a bench consisting of Chief Justice BR Gavai and Justices K Vinod Chandran and NV Anjaria, in hearing the state government's appeal, vacated the High Court's stay on the state's OBC policy, stating that 'prima facie, the high court order seems erroneous." On June 17, the Calcutta High Court had issued an interim stay on notifications from the state government regarding reservations for 140 subsections under OBC-A and OBC-B categories, the report added. The Supreme Court bench considered the submissions of senior advocate Kapil Sibal, representing the state government, and remarked, 'This is surprising. How can the high court pass such an order? Reservation is part of the executive function." The state had prepared the new list after the high court, in May 2024, annulled the inclusion of 77 communities in the OBC list. view comments First Published: July 31, 2025, 15:24 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
