Andhra Pradesh education minister Adimulapu Suresh today announced that the SSC exams in the state will be conducted as per the schedule from July 10th to 15th.
SSC Students in AP have come up with the demand to cancel examination after the Telangana, Tamil Nadu and few other state governments announced to scrap the SSC examinations. However, the AP education minister has made it clear that exams would be conducted as per the schedule.
The AP government has taken a key decision on conducting examinations in six papers instead of eleven papers considering the delay happened due to Covid-19 pandemic. The AP SSC examinations will be conducted from 9.30 am to 12.45 pm.
The minister had earlier told that social distancing will be strictly followed at examination centres and a limited number of students will be allocated to each examination hall. Seating arrangements will be made as per the guidelines on social distancing. Face masks are made mandatory at the exam hall.
