Ludhiana Class 12 outcome: No change in script as girls perform better
Despite her academic commitments, Yamuna was active in co-curricular activities like cryptic crosswords, debates and declamations. She now aims to join civil services and is preparing for an entrance exam to secure a seat at Delhi University. Drawing strength from her mother, Yamuna said, 'My mother started her handloom and home decor business after being a housewife. I've learned from her to always follow your passion with honesty and dedication.'
Joining her in the list is Vidushi Arora, also from the commerce stream at BCM Arya and the school's head girl, who scored an impressive 99.2%. After scoring 98% in Class 10, Vidushi said she changed her study approach for Class 12 by emphasising quality over quantity, mastering core concepts and taking regular mock tests. She scored a perfect 100 in English, business studies and artificial intelligence.
Vidushi is also an entrepreneur. In 2023, she launched 'Uphaar', a small business where she handcrafts personalised gifts. 'I've always wanted to blend my love for art with entrepreneurship,' she said. She spends nearly seven hours a day during exams and three hours on regular days, and is a firm believer in smart work along with hard work. She is now eyeing a place at Delhi University and enjoys painting, public speaking and poetry.
Another bright achiever is Jashanpreet Kaur from Nankana Sahib Public School, who scored 98.8%, with a perfect 100 in accountancy and music. Jashan has been consistently excellent, having scored 95% in Class 10. 'I used to study for nearly 10 hours during exams and participated in school music and declamation contests,' she shared. Jashan aims to become a chartered accountant.
Adding to the list of city's top scorers is Gungeet Kaur Dua, a humanities student from Sacred Heart Convent School, Sarabha Nagar, who also scored 98.8%.
With their eyes set on national universities and prestigious careers, these students are ready to script success stories of their own.

Conjoined twins graduate with honours, aim for CA
1 2 Hyderabad: Veena and Vani, 22-year-old conjoined twins from Hyderabad, have successfully completed their BCom degree with distinction and are now preparing to pursue their dream of becoming chartered accountants. Speaking to STOI, Safiya Khanam, Superintendent of Balasadanam, a state-run home under the Women and Child Welfare Department, said the twins have always been focused and determined. "They knew from an early age that mobility would be a challenge and that they might not be able to work outside the home like others. But they never let that discourage them. Instead, they chose to pursue chartered accountancy, a profession they believe can be practised from home while still achieving financial independence," she said.

Education has always been their top priority. Safiya recalled that, even as children, Veena and Vani consistently excelled in academics. In Class 10, Veena secured a GPA of 9.3 and Vani 9.2.

Here's what a microbiologist says CNA Read More Undo " With Veena earning an SGPA of 8.2 and Vani 7.8, Safiya told STOI that their ambition of becoming chartered accountants has been longstanding. "They actually began preparing for the CA course before starting their degree. But along the way, they realised it was too difficult to manage both. Now that they've completed their degrees, they will devote their full attention to CA preparation." When asked about the challenges they faced, Safiya remarked, "That's the remarkable part, they never viewed anything as a challenge. They simply wanted to study and live like any other child. They never complained or used their condition as an excuse." What has always stood out to those close to the twins is their quiet determination and the way they support each other in everyday tasks. "For instance, since their heads are joined and they face slightly different directions, even something as basic as reading or writing requires coordination. But they instinctively adjust their posture so both can see and work comfortably. It's small gestures like these that show how deeply committed they are," she added. Veena and Vani love reading and are constantly working to improve their English pronunciation, learning new words each day. "I have no doubt they'll achieve their dreams, they'll make brilliant chartered accountants," Safiya said.
