The Bihar School Examination Board (BSEB) has announced the results for the Class 10 (matric) board examinations, with Sakshi Kumari, the daughter of a laborer, being one of three students to jointly secure the top rank in the state.
Speaking to ANI, Sakshi expressed her surprise over securing the first rank, saying that she had hoped to be in the top 10 but never imagined that she would secure the top position.
“I’ve just cleared my 10th standard, now I’ll clear my 12th and aim to achieve the highest positions. My father is a laborer. Right from the beginning, I had decided to study hard to be among the top ten, but I never imagined that I would secure the first rank,” she said.
Sakshi, along with Anshi Kumari and Ranjan Verma, jointly achieved the first position with an impressive 489 out of 500 marks, which equates to 97.8 percent.
Another standout performer, Punit Kumar Singh, secured the second rank in the state. He achieved this feat by studying in a government school. Speaking to ANI, he said that government schools also have good teachers and urged students to work hard and attend school daily. He aspires to become an Indian Administrative Service (IAS) officer.
“We should always work hard. We should set our goals high and keep aiming higher. We should attend school daily, listen attentively to our teachers, and work hard. Government schools have very good teachers. I want to become an IAS officer,” he said.
A total of 123 students have made it to the top 10 ranks this year, including 63 boys and 60 girls, showcasing a nearly equal representation of both genders among the high achievers.
The results reflect the hard work of students across the state and mark another milestone for the Bihar board in conducting smooth and transparent examinations.
