Following the Madras High Court’s recommendation, the state government had canceled the board examination. Hearing a plea moved by Tamil Nadu Higher Secondary School Graduate Teachers Association against the state government’s plan to conduct the Class 10 board examination during a pandemic, a division bench of Justices Vineet Kothari and R Suresh Kumar said the court cannot allow the state government to put lives of 9 lakh students at stake. “Can the Tamil Nadu government give an undertaking that no student will get Covid-19 infection? We cannot allow the state to put lives of more than 9 lakh students at stake,” the bench said.
A week later, Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Edappadi K Palanisami said all the Class 10 students of the 2019-20 academic year will be promoted. He added that 80 per cent of the marks will be awarded to the students based on their performance in the quarterly and half-yearly examinations and 20 will be on attendance.
