Hyderabad: The High Court here on Friday directed the State government to put off SSC public examinations, which are scheduled to be held from March 23 to 30. The court also directed the SSC board and the government to conduct Saturday’s examination as scheduled.
The direction was passed by the High Court while dealing with a public interest litigation, which challenged the decision of the Education Department to conduct the examinations in view of the dreaded COVID-19. The court also advised the State government to take a further decision on examinations on March 29 after conducting a high-level meeting. The SSC examinations started in the State from March 19.
