Karnataka Secondary Education Examination Board (KSEEB) has decided to postpone the SSLC examination 2021, which were scheduled to begin from June 21. The state will monitor the COVID-19 situation and announce new dates later, Karnataka Primary and Secondary Education Minister S Suresh Kumar said.
The Minister also said that the revised dates will be announced much ahead of schedule, as he appealed to the students not to get disheartened and continue with their preparations for the exams. The revised Kar SSLC Time Table 2021 will be uploaded on the official website of the state board.
"The increasing COVID cases in the state coupled with the concerns of parent-students and many school associations has resulted in this decision. A suitable call will be taken after the second wave of COVID-19 dies down," said the minister.
