In normal circumstances, schools who have conducted a supplementary examination for all students who have failed to meet the passing marks criteria. Those students would have then sat for supplementary exams on a said date. But now, as the country battles with the coronavirus pandemic the decision was taken to go virtual with the tests.
Earlier, the state had issued a notice to pass all the students of class XI and class IX by awarding their numbers on the basis of the previous examinations and internal assessments.
