Telangana deputy chief minister Kadiam Srihari, who also holds the education portfolio, said 5,33,701 students, including 5,07,938 as regular candidates, appeared for the SSC examinations held from March 14 to 30 this year.

"Compared to last year, this is 1.4% less.

82.95.

This year, too, government schools recorded excellent results, with OBC welfare residential schools recording a pass percentage of 94.6. The other residential schools, too, registered over 90% result.

Srihari said while 2005 schools recorded 100% result, 28 schools including 20 private schools, recorded zero percent.
