HC lets boy suffering from internet gaming disorder to take improvement exams

The Bombay High Court said the boy deserves to be allowed to appear for the improvement exam for his Higher Secondary Certificate (HSC) in the interest of justice. In his plea, the boy said he was always an above average student and used to secure 85-93 per cent marks till Class XI. However, when he appeared for his Class XII examination in March 2023, he was suffering from depression and, thus, managed to get just 316 marks out of 600, the plea said.
