However, such students will have to take the examinations of Class X when the Covid-19 situation becomes normal.
Punjab school education minister Vijay Inder Singla said the matriculation result of regular students was declared by Punjab School Education Board (PSEB) on the basis of continuous comprehensive evaluation (CCE), but the result of open school students was withheld, as these students are not covered under CCE criteria.
"The open category candidates were in dilemma as they were not getting admission in the schools as regular students. After reviewing the situation, we have decided to provide them a short-term relief. Now they will be able to get admission in 10+1 provisionally subject to the condition that as and when the things become normal, they will have to take the matriculation examinations," Singla said.
The minister said the government has also decided to declare the result of supplementary examination of last year students on the basis of CCE of the relevant year.
He said these students had to appear in one subject as supplementary examination this year, but they were not able to take it due to Covid-19 pandemic.
Singla said the education department has not finalised the date sheet of examinations for open school students.
