అన్ని జిల్లాల్లో అధికారులు కోవిడ్ పై జాగ్రత్తలు తీసుకొని పరీక్షలకు సిద్ధం కావాలి.
ఇంటర్మీడియట్ పరీక్షలు అనివార్యం అని గుర్తించాలి.
ఏ రాష్ట్రంలో కూడా ఇవి రద్దు కాలేదు. కొన్నిచోట్ల నిర్వహిస్తున్నారు. మరికొన్ని చోట్ల వాయిదా వేశారు. pic.twitter.com/qgrcFy59F7
Bar and Bench and Live Law report that a plea has also been filed before the Andhra Pradesh High Court seeking postponement of AP Board exams for Classes 10 and 12 in the state.
Students have also signed a petition on change.org demanding that AP Board exams 2021 be postponed due to the ongoing situation. The petitioner has urged Education Minister to “cancel all the examinations to be held in next month as students are already under a lot of stress due to these unfortunate times.”
“I request to cancel all the examinations to be held in next month. It is very difficult to attend the exams by hearing the online classes. If students attend the exams, by chance if they get covid positive the situation of the cases will be more worse than now and our students will be in risk and their families too,” the petitioner said.
“The Andhra Pradesh government is not taking any charge towards cancelling the examinations even after discussing about this issue in the meeting. Once again I urge the education minister Mr Audimulapu Suresh and our chief minister Jagan Mohan Reddy to look into this matter and cancel all the examinations to be held next month,” the petitioner added.
Meanwhile, AP board students have started the #cancelboardexams2021ap campaign on Twitter.
“As lakhs of students sign petition and cases are peak, it's a request to the concerned authorities to cancel board exams 2021,” reads a tweet from a student who has been demanding cancellation of board exams amid COVID-19 pandemic.
