Bengaluru, May 24, 2021 (www.justkannada.in): Primary and Secondary Education Minister Suresh Kumar today said that the second PUC exams should be held in the interest of the students’ future.
Speaking at the All-State Education Ministers meeting organized by the Union Education Ministry today explained that it is inevitable to conduct exams for 2nd PUC as it is very crucial for the students who will be preparing for degree and vocational courses. “Exams should be held without fail at least after the COVID-19 Pandemic comes under control,” he added.
“Presently the pandemic has still not come under control anywhere and hence we have decided to announce the dates of the exams once the pandemic comes under control. However, the date of exams will be announced at least 15-20 days earlier. For students who don’t want to appear for the exams or those who fail to appear for the exams for various reasons, an opportunity will be given to appear for the exams again later this year,” he explained.
Several Ministers of various states including Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, Union Education Minister Ramesh Pokhrial Nishank, Textiles Minister Smriti Irani, Jarkhand Chief Minister Hemanth Soren, Goa Chief Minister Pramod Sawant took part in the meeting.
