The strict measures taken by the government might also influence the overall pass percentage this year. According to sources, there might be chances for the drop of pass percentage by 50 this year.

Commenting on the issue of a huge number of absentees, Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh, Mr. Yogi Adityanath mentioned that the state government decided to hold cheating-free exam and the government is not concerned about the huge number of absentees. Finally, the state government has been successful in instilling the fear of misconduct during exams among the students. However, he advised the students to consider exams as a daily routine rather than challenge.
