Vanshiben Manishbhai, a bright fourth grade student, living in a small village called Kharasana in Gujarat has been making headlines after she scored exceptionally high marks in Gujarati and Mathematics. Vanshiben shocked school management and her parents by scoring 211 and 212 marks respectively, surpassing the total marks of 200 allocated for each subject. The initial marks were later revised after the school management claimed it was a result of an error. Vanshiben then received a correct marksheet, which had scores 191 in Gujarati and 190 in Mathematics. While the marks for other subjects remained unchanged, the total was adjusted from 956 to 934, out of 1000.
Although the mistake affected her total marks, the student still scored A in all subjects, including Gujarati, Mathematics, Environment, Hindi and English. According to a report by India Today, after Vanshiben – who scored 93.40% – excitedly shared her scores with family, they discovered the blunder in her results. Soon after the incident came to light, district education officials launched an investigation to identify the cause of the error and implement measures to prevent it from happening in the future.
