Bombay HC comes to aid of girl with learning disability
The girl was detained in SSC because she had failed to obtain minimum marks in an optional subject, Information and Communication Technology.
However, the Court ruled that in keeping with the state's policy to support students with special needs or learning disabilities, the Board should consider Bhamisha Singh's satisfactory performance in the compulsory papers, award her the minimum marks required to pass in the subject and declare her as having passed her SSC exams.
