22% of Delhi Class 9 Failures Shift to NIOS
In Delhi, many students who fail Class 9 in government schools are moving to NIOS.

NIOS helps these students continue their education and gives them a chance to pass Class 10.

The Delhi government started a project to help these students, but many still struggle to pass.
NIOS also offers training for teachers and other courses to support education.
