Muslim girls outnumber boys in the exams
Muslim girls have outnumbered boys in the West Bengal Board exams even as a row erupted over the communal profiling of the topper. On Thursday, while announcing the results, West Bengal Council of Higher Secondary Education president Mahua Das, had stated that a girl student had registered the highest mark. However, while celebrating her achievement, the council president went on to mention the girl’s religion at least thrice. The alleged “communal profiling” of the student did not go well with different sections of society.More Related News
