Dahiya and Gupta are among the CBSE class 12 toppers from government schools of the city.
Joining the league of government school students who scored excellent in the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) class 12 examination this year are Sana from Sarvodaya Kanya Vidyalya (SKV), Jama Masjid area and Gyan Kaur from SKV, Ramesh Nagar, with 97.6 per cent and 97 per cent marks, respectively.

Proud about his son's performance, Gupta's father said, "My daughter had scored 95 per cent marks in class 12 three years ago. Now he has made us proud. He has his medical entrance exam on Sunday. I hope he performs the same there as well and becomes a doctor."
