Mysuru:  Before the SSLC exam commenced this morning, K.R. MLA S.A. Ramdas visited St. Mary’s School at Chamundipuram Circle and wished the students.

Speaking on the occasion, Ramdas said that it was natural for the students to have exam fear as they were writing a public exam for the first time.

Pointing out that the district secured a dismal 23rd place in the SSLC exam results last year, Ramdas said that 5,500 children were provided special training for the past four months.

Stating that continuous efforts are being made to bring the district to the top in SSLC results, he said that ‘Asare Foundation’ had provided SSLC guides free of cost to the students and also all the students appearing for the exam were distributed Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s ‘Exam Warriors’ message.

Exhorting the students to treat the exam as a festival and write without any fear, Ramdas distributed pens to the students. Corporator B.V. Manjunath and others were present.
