Even as physical classes in the state are yet to start due to the prevailing Covid situation, sources in the education department told TOI that the special tests for Class X and XII examinees may be conducted before the offline classes are allowed. “If the number of applicants is not huge, the special examinations may be conducted at the earliest by maintaining Covid protocols. However, the nod from the health department and state government is going to be mandatory,” a senior education department official said.

A record 6.55 lakh students cleared the Class X and XII state board exams this year. Despite an unusually high pass percentage, students in some parts of the state are protesting against the alleged biased approach adopted against them by the schools. The unsuccessful candidates are especially upset at their results without a physical examination.

“Our records do not prove that we are not good enough to pass the examination,” said an unsuccessful candidate.
