Agra: All the students of 98 schools in Uttar Pradesh failed to clear the Class 10 Board examinations, while all the students of 52 schools failed to clear the Class 12 examination. The 150 schools include state government-aided as well as private schools. Further, many of these schools had less than 10 students enrolled for the exams.

Apart from this, 237 schools in the state have a pass percentage of less than 20.

Agra district inspector of schools, Vinod Kumar Rai said, “No student has passed in nine schools of Agra district. Seven schools have a zero percent result in high school and two in intermediate. The data was compiled for this year alone, and there are no compiled figures for schoolwise pass percentage in the state for the previous years. Suitable steps will be taken to raise academic standards in schools with poor performance in board exams.”

This year, in the class XII exams, 65.07% students passed in Agra district, while 81.09% passed class X exams. Last year’s figures were 84.32% and 89.30%, respectively.

Mumbai, Nov 24: There is unrest in the Maha Vikas Aghadi camp and its five to six MLAs might join the ruling Mahayuti in the next few months, claimed NCP chief whip Anil Patil, who has retained his Amalner assembly seat, on Sunday.

The MVA of Congress, NCP (SP) and Shiv Sena (UBT) suffered a crushing blow in the Maharashtra assembly polls, winning only 46 of the state's 288 seats. By contrast, the BJP-led ruling coalition, which also has NCP and Shiv Sena as partners, bagged an impressive 230 seats.

“There is tremendous unrest among some NCP (SP), Congress and Sena (UBT) MLAs who have been re-elected. Those having good relations with us have expressed concerns over MVA’s massive defeat,” Patil told Marathi news channel ABP Majha.

If one wants development works in his constituency, it is good to be in power, said the legislator from Ajit Pawar’s party.

“The MVA MLAs feel their future is uncertain. It shouldn’t be a surprise if five to six MLAs cross over to the Mahayuti in the next four months,” he said.

In the results of the Maharashtra polls declared on Saturday, BJP won in 132 constituencies, while its partners Shiv Sena and NCP walked away with 57 and 41 seats, respectively.

From the MVA camp, Shiv Sena (UBT) bagged 20 seats followed by Congress’ 16 and 10 by NCP (SP).
