Dozen girls have committed suicide after failing SLC exam

The pass percentage of SLC is only 47.16 form 55.50 percent last year. This result has shocked the whole nation. Not sure whom to be blamed; parents , school, government, our education system or the student itself. Worst of all is dozen of girls have committed suicide after failing the exam..
I am deeply sadden by this news..

I strongly believe parents are to be blamed for the growing suicide rate among girls. Kids are put under lot of pressure by their parents. How can 15 or 16 years old handle that much pressure? Girls are mentally and emotionally tortured everyday to pass the exam in flying colors. Not everyone is equipped to work under pressure, which parents don't understand at all..

Even after passing SLC there are equally other tough exams that a students have to go through. But what I fail to understand is why is SLC given so much attention and limelight by the media and parents saying that it is the iron gate of the life..

I don't think its any sort of iron gate or whatever gate...i think its just a regular exam that every other students go through...

However I am sad that lot of girls have committed suicide and I hope and pray that the mentality of parents , education system gets better...
