The Bihar School Examination Board (BSEB) on Saturday cancelled the result of two toppers as they “failed to perform well” in the re-examination conducted on Friday.

Intermediate Science topper Saurabh Shrestha and another rank holder Rahul Kumar faced the music after a team of experts conducted a test-cum-interview. The other 11 students, out of the total 13 toppers who appeared for a re-test, were given a clean chit for performing exceedingly well.

Incidentally, the three students Saurabh, Rahul and Ruby are all from Vishnu Roy College in Vaishali. The affiliation of the institution, run by RJD leader Bachcha Yadav, has been cancelled. “We have constituted a three-member probe panel, to be headed by a retired High Court judge, to look into irregularities in intermediate examination. The other two members will be a retired bureaucrat and an educationist,” said BSEB chairman L P Singh.
