UP Board results of class 10 and 12 are now live

On Sunday, Uttar Pradesh Madhyamik Shiksha Parishad (UPMSP) announced the results of the state board exams. This year the results of both classes 10 and 12 witnessed a sharp decline in the pass percentage of the students. This year, the pass percentage of class 10 and 12 is 75.16% and 72.43% respectively. Last year, the pass percentage was 81.6 for class 10 and 82.5 for class 12. This year, more than 66 lakh students registered for the exams of which 56,32,860 appeared. The huge drop in the number of students appearing for the exam was due to government’s crackdown on the cheating mafia in the state. Government took stringent steps to keep the incidents of the cheating under control this year. Exam halls were monitored through CCTV cameras and coded answer sheets were given to the students to prevent the incidents of mass cheating. Director of the education board Awadh Naresh Sharma said, “The exams have been conducted in a transparent manner and with complete honesty under the watch of CCTV cameras.” Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Sunday congratulated “students who had successfully taken the exams and got good results without cheating” and said that prices will be announced for the top 10 scrores. “I am very happy that in record time, within one month of the exams, the results have been declared. These results are a slap on the face of those elements who play with the future of our students by facilitating cheating,” he said. Rajneesh Shukla, a resident of Fatehpur, and Akash Maurya from Barabanki, both scored 93.20 per cent and emerged statewide Class XII toppers. Meanwhile, Anjali Verma, a resident of Allahabad, emerged the Class X topper with a score of 96.33 per cent.
