What happened in 2021?
In 2021, almost all states and the two central boards – CBSE and CISCE – had to cancel final year examinations due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
AP originally wanted to hold the exams with precautionary measures, but the Supreme Court commented that unless they were convinced exams could be held without a single fatality, the state would not be allowed to proceed with its plan.
Subsequently, the state government announced that the exams would not be held and that students would be promoted based on their past performances.
