Assam\u2019s High School Leaving Certificate (HSLC) 2025 results have sparked concerns among lawmakers and educators, with a significant decline in overall pass percentage. According to the latest figures, just 63.98% of students passed the examination, a steep drop from 75.7% in 2024. This worrying trend has been attributed to a dearth of quality education, with girls continuing to lag behind boys in terms of pass rates.<\/span><\/p>\n Girls\u2019 pass rates stood at 61.09%, while boys managed to secure a 67.59% pass rate. Moreover, students from the Tea Tribe community faced a particularly challenging outcome, with a dismal 51.89% pass rate. The stark disparity in pass percentages across different categories has raised concerns about the government\u2019s effectiveness in providing equal access to education.<\/span><\/p>\n Congress MP Gaurav Gogoi has slammed the state government\u2019s handling of the education system, urging Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma to allow Education Minister Ranoj Pegu to perform his duties without interference. Gogoi emphasized the need for targeted actions to improve access, equity, and quality in secondary education across the state. The politician\u2019s comments come as the government prepares to implement focused interventions in Scheduled Caste (SC) and Tea Garden (TG) communities to bridge the learning gap.<\/span><\/p>\n Assam Education Minister Ranoj Pegu highlighted the concerning pass percentages among SC and TG students in a recent social media post. Notably, only 58.56% of SC students and 51.89% of TG students passed the HSLC examination, falling short of the state average. Pegu emphasized the need for inclusive educational growth and announced that the Education Department will prioritize focused interventions in these two social sectors in 2025-26.<\/span><\/p>\n The data reveals that among the 38,448 SC students who appeared for the exam, only 22,556 managed to pass, while 2,294 TG students appeared, with just 1,191 clearing the examination. As Assam grapples with the below-average HSLC results, policymakers and educators must work together to address the deep-seated issues plaguing the education system. With the government\u2019s proposed interventions, it remains to be seen whether the state can reverse its declining education trends and provide a better future for its youth.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Assam\u2019s High School Leaving Certificate (HSLC) 2025 results have sparked concerns among lawmakers and educators, with a significant decline in overall pass percentage.
