‘Can’t expect students to pass with 13 days of classes’
Even as the demand for passing all the students of Intermediate first year gains momentum with suicides and protests on the rise, the government is in a dilemma on how to go ahead given the academic and administrative predicament.
Such is the poor performance of students, sources of the Board of Intermediate Education (BIE) said, that about one lakh students out of the 2.35 lakh who failed could not cross double digits even if marks of all their subjects are combined.
Thousands of students could not even answer more than two sentences for each question while a few thousands did not cross the first page of the answer sheet. “How can such students be passed,” an official asked admitting that the government was in a dilemma.
