C. Shikha, director of the department, said the results would be published in the respective colleges on Tuesday. A total of 6.9 lakh students had registered for the examination that was conducted in March.

The department has decided not to allow private websites to host the results as there was an error in some of the results from a private company a couple of years ago.
