The Bihar Education Department has announced that it would promote all students from classes 1 to 8 to the next academic year without holding exams. The decision to promote has been taken keeping in mind the academic loss suffered by students due to the COVID-19 lockdown.
Around 1.66 crore students who are currently pursuing their education between Classes 1 to 8, will be promoted to the next academic grade without having to appear for the final exam. The decision will be applicable to all government schools across the state.
