The Bihar Board has been through a lot of controversies in the past couple of years. In 2016, the Class 10 results were declared on May 29 (Sunday) and the passing percentage was just 28 compared to 75.17 in 2015. Such a sharp dip had left the Board in an utter shock. “The results are not as expected. But, this result shows the actual merit of our students. Those who have passed will be able to clear national level competitive exams as against those who used to pass because of cheating or other unfair means,” the then education minister Ashok Choudhary said. After a photo of mass cheating during exams surfaced in the social media in 2015, the education authorities had installed CCTV cameras and set up security personnel at the exam centres in 2016. The state of Bihar had faced a number of controversies of exams cleared through unfair means. The result of Class 12 board exam (held between February 14 and February 25) was announced with only 30.11 students clearing the exams. Only 37.1% students in Arts cleared the exam and 73.76 in commerce which was better than the former. Ganesh Kumar (Arts) had scored 82.6%. However, it was brought to light that Kumar had lied about his age to the authorities and knew nothing about the subject he had taken in the exam. Similarly in 2015, the topper of Class 12 Ruby Rai could not pronounce Political Science and said that the subject had something to do with cooking.
