BIRGUNJ, DECEMBER 24Students at Shree Nepal Rastriya Secondary School of Bahudarmai Municipality, Parsa, recently completed their half-yearly exams.
Their exams had started from 15 December and they appeared for the exam in Population and Environment Studies subject on 21 December.
On that day, most of the students exited the exam hall writing in their answer sheet that there was no classes on the subject."We haven't had any lessons on the subject, so what could we write?" said tenth grader Priyanka Kumari Yadav.Another girl Punita Kumari Yadav also echoed Priyanka Kumari's concern.
Similar concerns were expressed by Suraj Kumar Gupta, Subas Kumar Yadav, Muna Mahato Nuniya, Umakanta Prasad Sah, Rajan Kumar Sah, Prakash Yadav, and Puja Kumari Patel, who all wrote it clearly in their answer sheet that they hadn't been taught anything on the subject.Suraj Kumar Gupta of Grade X even lamented there wasn't a teacher for the subject.
"We demanded a teacher for the subject again and again, but nobody heard us, which is why we were compelled to write it in the answer sheet that we hadn't been taught anything," Puja Patel said, also informing that Health teacher was mostly absent.
"We don't know how we would appear for the final exams," she said.Principal Ajaya Kumar Yadav, on his part, rejected the claim that there hadn't been any classes.
"There are a total of 223 students in Grade X and most of them have written their answers, a few didn't, maybe because they were told not to or they wanted to do politics," he said.
"We had a Health and Population teacher earlier, but after he was transferred elsewhere, another teacher took his classes," he said.A version of this article appears in the print on December 25, 2022, of The Himalayan Times.
