Killjoy board withholds 7-yr-old’s Class X mark sheet

Lucknow, June 23: The youngest to clear the Class X exams, Sushma left for Shirdi with her father yesterday to seek the blessings of Sai Baba. Confirming that her daughter had not received the mark sheet as yet, Tej Bahadur, a gardener, said Madhyamik Shiksha Parishad, which conducts the UP Board Class X exams, has been withholding it.

However, secretary of the UP Board, in a letter to the Lucknow district inspector of schools (DIOS), has asked him to explain how Sushma was allowed to appear for the high school examinations. Initially, the Parishad it made Sushma over 100 years old by mentioning her year of birth on the hall ticket as 1900. When the mistake was discovered, it was changed to 1990 - still making her 10 years older than she really is.

IMO: Soon these people will reach the high level of competence of the UK NHS, and probably fix the the poor girl's age as 1007 years. At that age she will probably qualify for a job with the Parishad.
