Himanta, Gogoi spar over poor board results in Assam
The New Indian Express Kannur
|April 12, 2025
CHIEF Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma and Congress MP Gaurav Gogoi on Friday clashed over the pass rate of Assam's High School Leaving Certificate examination, which dipped from 75.7% in 2024 to 63.98% this year, raising concerns.
With a 67.59% pass rate, boys outperformed girls (61.09%). Amishi Saikia of the Pragya Academy Senior Secondary School, Jorhat, secured the top position with 98.50% marks.
The examination was conducted by the Assam State School Education Board, its first. Previously, the Board of Secondary Education, Assam (SEBA) conducted it. Meanwhile, Congress MP Gaurav Gogoi attributed the drop in pass percentage directly to the BJP government, saying the results clearly indicated that the government was failing the state's youth. He noted that only 51.89% of Tea Tribe students passed the exam.
