Ranchi: The Jharkhand Academic Council (JAC) on Saturday postponed its Class X and XII board exams indefinitely in view of the surge in Covid cases in the state. “We will review the Covid situation and take a further call on the matter on June 1,” JAC secretary Mahip Singh said. The exams were scheduled to begin from May 4. Singh assured that whichever date they decide to conduct the exams on, students will be given at least 15 days’ time to prepare. Around seven lakh students were scheduled to appear for the exams across 2,150 centres. Many pupils, teachers and even some JAC officials were pressing the council to defer/cancel the exams.
