Indian male student faints after finding himself among 500 girls in examination centre

Bihar-student-faint

Manish Shankar Prasad regained consciousness after a few hours, his father Sacchidanand Prasad said.

A grade 12 student fell unconscious in the examination hall after finding himself the lone male among 500 girl students in Bihar's Nalanda district, his family said.

The student was identified as Manish Shankar Prasad, 17, who went to the Brilliant Convent School in Sundargarh to give the mathematics examination.

His relatives claimed that he was the only male student at the exam centre. When he saw a large number of female students, he became nervous and collapsed on the floor.

The school administration came to his aid and admitted him to the Sadar Hospital in the city for treatment. He regained consciousness after a few hours, his father Sacchidanand Prasad, said.

Another relative blamed the Bihar Intermediate Council for allotting him the examination centre dedicated for female students.

"There were more than 500 girls students in the examination centre. The school administration has given the seat to my nephew in the main hall of the school surrounded by a large number of girls. Manish failed to handle the situation after he saw a large number of girls and fell unconscious," his aunt said.

According to a media report, the board by mistake printed a girl's name on his admit card and therefore he had to appear in the female examination hall for his maths paper.
