A total of 4, 59,242 students appeared for the exams, said State Education Minister P Sabita Indra Reddy. Out of the total, 2, 24,000 passed the exams which were 49 per cent. Even if 30 marks are added to each failed student, about 83,000 students would clear the exam, leaving about 1,50,000 students failed.
TS Inter Results 2021: The Telangana government has announced its decision to pass the failed students of Intermediate First Year (11th standard) by giving them minimum pass marks of 35. According to the reports, the Board took the decision after facing a backlash against the backdrop of only 49 per cent of Intermediate First Year students clearing the exam, triggering protests from the Opposition parties and students’ unions. The protests sought that the students’ case should be sympathetically considered in view of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic situation.

The authorities received directions from Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao that the students should not remain worried about the result as the Intermediate Second Year exams are also approaching.
“Since Intermediate second year (12th standard) is very important, the CM directed that all first-year students be passed by giving minimum pass marks of 35. We are giving minimum marks to all and making them clear the exam,” Reddy said.
She further asked students to work hard to realise the dreams of their parents and not to expect the government’s help in the event of a failure in tests.
The decision was taken in the interest of students’ future and to see that the students don’t feel psychological pressure over the exam result as Second Year exams are also approaching, she said.
