INLD patriarch gets his Class 10, 12 marksheets
Congratulations poured in from politicians and celebrities for former Haryana chief minister Om Prakash Chautala, 87, when the Indian National Lok Dal (INLD) patriarch received his 10th and 12th Class marksheets from the state education board last week. After the news was broken via the social media platforms, celebrations broke out in the INLD rank and file. In a tweet, former J&K CM Omar Abdullah congratulated Chautala saying, “A person is never too old to learn.” Chautala appeared in the Class 10 exam in 2019 when he was lodged in Tihar jail, serving sentence in the teachers’ recruitment scam. However, he could not appear in the English paper. He got a compartment in English and his Class 12 result was not declared. Chautala appeared for his English compartment exam in August 2021 and scored 88%. Finally, he received marksheets from the education board. The publicity this development generated also boosted the morale of the INLD.
