A whopping 51% students have failed in the Class X exams of 2016 held by the Haryana Board of School Education (HBSE). The result was declared on 2016-05-22.
The overall pass percentage is 48.88%, which is only marginally better (up 3%) than last year's figures. This is despite the tall claims of the BJP government to raise the standard of education, according to reports in the print media. As in the previous year, girls once again outperformed boys with a success rate of 52.62% compared to 45.71% that of boys.
The only silver lining is government schools outperforming private schools, with the pass percentage rising from a mere 30.32% last year to 42.25% this year.
Rural students too performed better than those in cities.
Haryana Board of School Education chairman Dr Jagbir Singh felt that the policy not to fail students up to Class VIII was responsible for the poor show.
