Madhya Pradesh: At 59.54%, reserve category Class 10 board results dip this year

BHOPAL: After two years of Covid 19, the Class 10 results of the reserved category have decreased this year. Last year 100% pass results were declared due to the second wave of Covid 19, but , this year overall 59.54% of students were declared pass.

As per the official data of the MPBSE, students of the SC category suffered a major setback.

In 2020, 57.32% of students had cleared the exam. However, in 2022, the results of pass students went down to 49.58% with a decrease of 7.62%.

Students of OBC categories also witnessed a steep fall in their results. In 2020, 64.76% of students had cleared the exam; 2022, 61.39% of students managed to clear the exams.

There was a dip of 3.37% in the result of OBC category students. Only students in ST category managed to improve their results this year.

In 2020, 55.48% students had cleared the exam. In 2022, 56.43% of students managed to clear the exam, showing an increase of 0.95%.

In general category too, a small dip in the results has been witnessed.

In 2020, 70.84% of students had cleared the exam; in 2022, 70.38% students passed the exam.

Teachers said that the dip was mainly because of the absence of offline classes. “Classes began late this year due to which students were completely dependent upon online classes. However, the online classes were not available properly to all due to which several students could not study well,” said a school teacher Pramod Verma.

After declaring the result, even the school education minister Inder Singh Parmar had admitted that the results could have been better.

“The result was not good. Due to Corona, classes could not be held throughout the year,” said Parmar.

He went on to add, “There was a delay in the issuance of the blueprint and question bank. It should have been released earlier. Now from next year it will be released on time. Everyone will be informed about this. In the analysis of the results, it was revealed that the children of class 12 benefited from this, while the children of class 10 suffered losses. We realise that , due to poor studies, a lot of children faced difficulty in solving the object questions.”
