 "Karnataka SSLC Exam 2021: Class 10 board exams postponed due to COVID-19 surge, says education minister")
Bengaluru: Karnataka primary and secondary education minister S Suresh Kumar on Thursday said the Class 10 examinations scheduled to commence from June 21 has been postponed due to the spike in COVID-19 cases in the state. The increasing coronavirus cases in the state coupled with the concerns of parents, students and many school associations has resulted in this decision, the minister’s office said in a statement quoting him. A suitable call will be taken after the second wave of COVID-19 dies down, it said. The minister also said that the revised dates will be announced much ahead of schedule, as he appealed to the students not to get disheartened and continue with their preparations for the exams. Earlier this month, the state government had postponed the second PUC (class 12) examinations which were scheduled to begin from 24 May, citing surge in COVID cases as the reason.
