WBJEE 2025 Result Postponed: Latest Updates & What to Expect

The West Bengal Joint Entrance Examinations Board (WBJEEB) postponed the WBJEE 2025 result, which had initially been scheduled for August 7, 2025. The delay stems from ongoing legal proceedings in the Calcutta High Court, which has initiated contempt hearings related to OBC reservation norms and has suspended related admission activities

Why the Delay?

Last-minute legal issues tied to OBC subv-caste categorization prompted the High Court to step in. Justice Kausik Chanda has initiated hearings and has summoned the state’s Higher Education Secretary, effectively halting result declaration until the court delivers further direction
