The Maharashtra government has made significant improvements to the grace marks process for student-athletes taking Secondary (Class 10) and Higher Secondary (Class 12) board examinations. The revised system, part of the state's Sports Policy 2012, will now allow applications to be processed within 14 working days, ensuring a faster and more transparent experience. Key reforms include a reduction in documentation requirements, with student details automatically fetched from hall ticket records to minimize errors. A structured three-level verification mechanism has been established, where applications will be reviewed at the district level before final approval by the state education board. This streamlined process aims to promote sports culture among students, allowing them to apply for grace marks annually from January 1 to April 15.
