Exams Can Fail, Not Society!
A fortnight ago, while I was working late in the office, a colleague called, visibly distressed. An adolescent from their family had left home after an altercation over his 12th class exam results. As a parent myself, I could only imagine the anguish the family must have been going through. I immediately alerted my police colleagues, and thanks to the swift intervention of the Commissionerate of Police and the Transport Commissioner, the boy was safely traced to a distant railway station, having boarded a long-distance train. In those few critical hours, anything could have happened, from falling into the wrong hands to taking extreme steps by the boy. Sadly, such stories aren’t rare. If one pays attention, almost every day, especially after board exam results are announced, corner of the newspapers carry such tragic news of young lives lost or missing. For many families, Class 10 and 12 results are seen as defining moments in life, leading to severe pressure on students.
