Gujarat Open School Students Face Certificate Delays
Imagine you took an important test, but the paper that proves you passed hasn't arrived yet.
That's happening to many students who took open school exams in Gujarat.
They need a paper called a trial certificate to go to college or other schools, but they haven't gotten it yet.
Unlike regular students who got their papers through school, these students are stuck.
This is making it hard for them, especially those living far away, as they have to go to a specific office to sort it out.
A group wants the government to help these students get their certificates quickly so they can continue their education.
Many Gujarat State Open Schooling (GSOS) students have not received their trial certificates after the Class 10 and 12 board exams.
The lack of certificates is hindering GSOS students' admission to higher education institutions.
Regular students received certificates through their schools, but GSOS students did not.
GSOS students, especially those from remote areas, are forced to travel to Gandhinagar.
The Akhil Bharatiya Rashtriya Shaikshik Mahasangh has requested state intervention.
