Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on Saturday asked the critics, who are criticising the results of HSC and equivalent exams following the new system, to refrain from unnecessary criticism.
She said the futile discussion will only mount pressure on the students, who are already under huge mental pressure due to the closure of educational institutions for a long time.
“The negative comments regarding the results will create psychological pressure on the students. I request those making such comments to stop (doing it),” she said while announcing the results of HSC and equivalent exams of 2020.
The results were officially announced at the International Mother Language Institute in Dhaka’s Segunbagicha while Prime Minister Hasina joined through a video conference from Ganabhaban.
Since no exam took place amid the coronavirus pandemic, the HSC results were evaluated based on the students’ Junior School Certificate (JSC) and Secondary School Certificate (SSC) results.
All students passed and a total of 1,61,807 students got the highest grade point average (GPA 5) in the HSC and equivalent examinations-2020 as the results were published after coordinating 75 percent of the SSC and 25 percent from the JSC-JDC results.
Prime Minister Hasina said that many people are saying many things. “But I think that it would be better not to make unnecessary comments or bitterness,” she said.
