EWS STUDENT EXCELS WITH 80% MARKS IN CBSE CLASS XII EXAM

In a show of brilliance, Kritika Aggarwal (+918447004031), a student of Happy Senior School, C-63, Kirti Nagar, New Delhi-110015 scored an 80% (best of four) in her Class XII CBSE Board examinations 2011-12, the results of which were announced on Monday. Kritika, a resident of B-1, New Patel Nagar, Shadipur Depot, New Delhi-110008 is a student of EWS category and comes from a household with a parental income of Rs.8000/- per month. Her father works in a Canteen and her mother is engaged in petty jobs. She was studying in the school under EWS category. Kritika, by scoring above 80 in three of five subjects, has dispelled the myth of callousness associated with EWS students. The notion that EWS students don’t work hard and underperform has been beaten by stellar performances by students like Kritika who are succeeding with flying colours. It is all a matter of opportunity. Any child from the weaker sections, if given an opportunity, can compete with any student from the well-off sections.
