Public Affairs Advisor Sajjala Ramakrishna Reddy said Prime Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy made the decision to continue conducting the Intermediate Public Examination (IPE) to keep an eye on the future of the students.
Mr Ramakrishna Reddy spoke to the media on Saturday that there were two problems – exam cancellation and exam postponement.
“The government is determined to conduct the audit. We make sure that no student is inconvenienced. The examination rooms are being renovated and all supervisors wear face protection and masks. Isolation rooms are set up for the infected students and positive contacts. The government has eased some issues like timing. It ensures that a reasonable physical distance is maintained and even provides transportation on sanitary buses, ”said Ramakrishna Reddy.
Regarding the postponement of the exam, Mr. Reddy said the issue was subject. However, he noted that postponing the exam would not serve the purpose if the situation did not improve over the next three months.
