This was a decline from 2023 when 5,757 students had registered, 5,645 appeared, and 4,924 had cleared the exams.

Madhav Sharan, a student at Amity International School in Pushp Vihar, expressed joy at achieving a score of 93% in his examinations, acknowledging the support he got from the school faculty and special educators.

Madhav’s family, in a conversation with TOI, said that after his Class X board exams in August 2021, he suffered a severe hyper-dense brain haemorrhage.

This resulted in a limb disability and impacted approximately one-third of his brain, adversely affecting his speech, comprehension, arithmetic and writing skills. “I put around 8-10 hours every day into my studies, just before my exams.... If one decides to put in the hard work and determination, one can do anything,” he said.
