Toiba’s family is devastated, and the incident has raised concerns about the efficiency of JKBOSE. Toiba’s mother lamented, “What has my child done? What was her fault?” The principal visited JKBOSE continuously for seven days and was assured that Toiba would receive the admit card, but nothing happened.The incident highlights the need for JKBOSE to streamline its processes and ensure that technical errors do not jeopardize students’ futures.
