UP Board result 2026: The Uttar Pradesh Madhyamik Shiksha Parishad (UPMSP) has extended the evaluation schedule for the UP Board Class 10 and Class 12 examinations 2026. The decision was taken after delays were reported at several evaluation centres across the state. The evaluation of answer sheets began on March 18, 2026 and was earlier scheduled to be completed by April 1, 2026. However, officials found that the work could not be finished on time due to multiple holidays during the evaluation period, according to an official notice released by the Board. Public holidays on March 21, 2026 for Eid-ul-Fitr and on March 26 and 27, 2026 for Ram Navami slowed down the checking process. Several District School Inspectors and Deputy Controllers from evaluation centres requested the board to extend the deadline. Considering these requests, the board has now extended the evaluation deadline to April 4, 2026. Officials have instructed all evaluation centres to use the additional time carefully and complete the checking process properly. The board has also directed that award lists must be submitted to regional offices by April 5, 2026. However, UPMSP has not yet announced any change in the result date, and results are still expected as per the usual timeline.
