Hyderabad: 51-YO Man Clears Class X Exam After 33 Years Thanks To COVID
Hyderabad man had been appearing for class 10 examination for past 33 years but couldn't pass because of COVID, exams got cancelled and all students got automatically promoted, including him.
You know how there are some people who don't give up and keep giving exams until they pass, no matter how many years it takes? Well, a 51-year-old man had been persevering and giving class X exams for the past 33 years as he couldn¡¯t pass.
Good news for him, because he finally cleared class 10 board examinations this year... thanks to COVID-19.
Mohammad Nooruddin had been trying to pass the class X examinations for over three decades now without any luck. Talking to ANI he said that he was ¡®weak¡¯ in English and there¡¯s no one around to tutor him.
"I was weak in English as there was no one to help me or give tuitions to me. But I studied with the support of my brother and sister. I consistently failed in exams for 33 years, but I applied for exams every year as for a job of a security guard, I was asked to give class 10 results," he reportedly said.
However, because of the impact of COVID-19 on the education system, the subsequent cancellation of exams and an automatic promotion to the next grade, Nooruddin has finally passed the ¡®exam.¡¯ Because there were no exams.

"Luckily, I got a job of security guard without showing class X results. I continued my job as a security guard from 1989 and now I get a salary of Rs 7,000. I have four children. I passed this year as the government has given exemption due to COVID-19,¡± he further said.
