CBSE statistics for the 2026 Class XII examinations showed regional language subjects lagging behind electives in the number of students securing full marks. Punjabi and Malayalam performed relatively better among language subjects, while Marathi and Manipuri recorded only one perfect scorer each.
Even as lakhs of students appeared for the CBSE Class 12 examinations this year, the recent statistics from the CBSE subject-wise full marks statistics has pointed out an noticeable contrast between regional languages subjects and mainstream academic elective.
According to figures published by the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) regarding the 2026 Senior School Certificate Examination, it becomes evident that there were a few regional language subjects in which the number of perfect scorers was very small, compared to those subjects which had a commercial, technological, artistic, or practical element.
The new trend in the CBSE syllabus is being reflected through these figures, and the role of regional languages in senior secondary education comes under the spotlight yet again.
Regional languages have very few students with perfect scores
