Andhra Pradesh SSC exams cancelled due to Covid-19, says education minister

The Andhra Pradesh government on Saturday decided to cancel the AP SSC (class X) public examinations and promote the students in view of the Covid-19 situation.

State Education Minister A Suresh said the government took the decision to safeguard the students' health in view of the rapid spread of coronavirus in the state.

The July 10 examinations were originally scheduled to be held in March but were first put off due to the impending elections to local bodies and subsequently due to the Covid-19 lockdown.
