Rape survivor stopped from taking class 12 board exam in Rajasthan

A girl from Rajasthan said her school did not let her appear for class 12 board examinations because she had been gang-raped last year. According to the student's complaint, the private school officials in Ajmer told her that the atmosphere would be spoiled if she appeared for the examination.

This incident came to light when the girl approached a teacher at another school. The teacher advised her to call the child helpline number. Ajmer's Child Welfare Commission (CWC) filed a case and will take necessary action after an investigation.

However, the school claimed that they did not give an admit card to the student as she did not attend classes for 4 months.

Last year, the student was raped by her uncle and two other men. The girl told the CWC chairperson Anjali Sharma that the school suggested that she should study from home as her coming to school could spoil the atmosphere.

The student agreed and was preparing for her board exams at home. Later, when she went to collect her admit card, she was told by the school that she was no longer a student of the school.

CWC chairperson Anjali Sharma told NDTV, "When I spoke to the girl, she told me that she was dejected as she is a bright student. She had scored 79% in her class 10 board exams."
