Bhubaneswar:
Top scorers
in
Plus II examinations
, whose results were declared on Wednesday, underscored the significance of
time management
, clarity on subjects and concepts, and focus as their mantra of success.
While the Council of Higher Secondary Education (CHSE) did not release an official list of toppers, many students who appeared for the Plus II exams performed exceptionally well.
This year, more than 2,200 students scored above 90% compared to 546 students last year.
Kashis Naik of BJB Higher Secondary School in Bhubaneswar scored 557 out of 600 (92.9%) in the humanities stream. "Hard work, routine and balance helped me score good marks in the exams. I studied for six to seven hours regularly, apart from classes. I focused more on understanding concepts rather than memorising them."
Most of the top-scoring students said they avoided last-minute rote learning and relied on textbooks and self-prepared notes.
"Solving question papers of previous years and practising sample papers helped me a lot in scoring good marks. Teachers were always a phone call away and helped in clearing doubts," said Goutam Giri of Baripada, who scored 571 out of 600 (95.2%) in the science stream.
Sonam Gadnayak of Angul, who scored 92.8%, said, "I scored 82% in Class X exams but improved my scores significantly in higher secondary examinations due to proper focus and time management.

XFG Covid strain enters Telangana, cases still mild

1 2 Hyderabad: As concerns grow about rising Covid-19 cases in the country, for the first time, one of the samples sent by Telangana health officials for genome sequencing has been found to carry a new Covid-19 sub-variant called XFG. This was revealed by the Indian SARS-CoV-2 Genomics Consortium (INSACOG), the central body that tracks changes in the virus. Of the five samples sent from Telangana, four — two men and two women — showed another recent sub-variant called LF.7.9, while the XFG strain was detected in a sample from one man. Dr Kiran Madala, co-chairman of the public relations and social media committee of IMA Telangana and a Covid-19 researcher, confirmed to TOI that both variants were detected in Telangana and the sequences were uploaded on INSACOG's portal. Both XFG and LF.7.9 are sub-lineages of Omicron and trace their origin to the JN.1 variant, which led to a global wave in late 2023 and early 2024. Nationally, these two sub-variants are among the most common at present. As per INSACOG data till Monday, 172 samples were identified as XFG, 82 as LF.7.9, followed by 35 XFJ and 18 others. Telangana has now joined Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Gujarat, Andhra Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, and West Bengal, where the XFG variant has already been detected. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Thị trường có dấu hiệu suy thoái không? IC Markets Đăng ký Undo Across India, around 163 cases of XFG have been recorded so far, as per INSACOG. The World Health Organization (WHO) is currently tracking eight sub-variants globally, including NB.1.8.1, which is prevalent in Singapore. "There are ongoing studies on the transmissibility and impact of XFG, LF.7.9, and XFJ. So far, they appear mild. WHO hasn't issued any special advisory on them yet," said Dr Kiran Madala, who is also a professor at Gandhi Medical College. "Covid-19 has become endemic and is not severe in most cases," he added. While the majority of cases remain mild, experts advise caution for vulnerable groups. "According to Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) data, 66% of current respiratory viral infections in India are Covid-related. However, hospitalisation is low, including in Telangana. People with two or more comorbidities, weakened immunity, or above 70 years should remain alert," he said. Telangana currently has nine active Covid cases, down from 10 a day earlier, according to the Union health ministry dashboard. "There's no reason to panic," said Dr Ravinder Nayak, director of public health and family welfare. "The new sub-variants are part of the virus's natural evolution and are not showing significant clinical symptoms."

IVRI performs first indigenous hip transplant in dog

Lucknow: The Indian Veterinary Research Institute (IVRI), Bareilly, set a record by carrying out a hip transplant on a dog using indigenous technology. This first of its kind transplant in the country was carried out by IVRI scientist Dr Rohit Kumar and his team. A govt spokesperson said that artificial hips were not available for dogs in India, and when required, one had to depend on foreign equipment, which costs up to Rs 5 lakh. "IVRI has developed a completely indigenous hip system based on cemented technology for Indian breed dogs, which will provide a better life to dogs at a very low cost," a govt spokesperson said. The transplant was possible after three years of intensive research. Technical assistance was provided by human orthopaedic surgeon from Bareilly Dr Alok Singh, along with Yogesh Saxena and Devesh Saxena of Bareilly Medicare firm. The artificial hip and equipment used in the surgery were manufactured in collaboration with Gujarat's Life Ortho Care company. The team of doctors included principal scientist Dr Rohit Kumar, Dr Amarpal, Dr AC Saxena, Dr AM Pawade, Dr T Sai Kumar, and researcher Dr Kamlesh Kumar. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với mức chênh lệch giá thấp nhất IC Markets Đăng ký Undo Their first successful surgery was done in Dehradun, the second at IVRI, and the third on a service dog of Sambhal police. So far, three dogs have received a new lease on life from these surgeries. IVRI director Dr Triveni Dutt said, "This is a milestone towards India's self-reliance in veterinary medicine. We will make this technology available to dog breeders across the country as soon as possible and transfer it to industrial sector."
