Notably, the fraternal twins are the headmaster’s children.
These twins are from three localities- College Veng, ITI and Salem Veng.
A photo of eight pairs of twins gracing its school has gone viral on social media.
H. Lalventluanga said that the school has had twins in the previous session of school, but a record-breaking eight pairs in a single year has never before happened.
“The teachers were having a discussion this morning, and much to our delight, we realised that we are having eight pairs of twins studying in various classes. Last year too, we had four pairs,” he added.
The headmaster also highlighted that besides their school, Govt. Rev. Thianga Primary School at Bethlehem locality has 4 pairs of twins enrolled in the school.
