Tamil Nadu government in favour to hold TN 12th Exams 2021 once the COVID-19 situation improves. Read here.
TN 12th Exam 2021: The Tamil Nadu government has said that it is in favour of conducting Tamil Nadu 12th Exams 2021 at a convenient schedule later. During a virtual meeting chaired by Union Education Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal Nishank and Union Defence Minister Rajnath Singh to discuss the feasibility of holding the class 12 public exams and entrance exams for professional courses, the state government showed its interest in conducting the Tamil Nadu 12th Public exams 2021.
โClass 12 public exams are crucial in deciding higher education and career of students. There is no use in giving them โall passโ. Many other states including TN are in favour of conducting the exams,โ Tamil Nadu School Education Minister Anbil Mahesh Poyyamozhi told reporters.
The Education Minister had earlier sought views on the possibility of conducting the exams in July or August. States may opt to hold them in Multiple Choice Questions or objective type format. This proposal from the Centre is aimed at reducing the duration of the exams.
Tamil Nadu government, however, has expressed reluctance to swapping paper patterns. The State has time until today; i.e May 25, to submit its views on the matter.
Higher Education Minister K Ponmudi also expressed opposition to NEET 2021 during the meeting and said that the entrance test should be used only for medical colleges run by the Centre and not by the State. He said that TN class 12 public exam 2021 scores will be used for medical counselling, as done previously.
