5th and 8th class public examination issue: High court adjourned the hearing to March 14

The state government had filed an appeal to the division bench challenging the order of the high court single member bench in the background of canceling the 5th and 8th class board examination.

Refusing to stay the order of the single member bench, the High Court adjourned the hearing to March 14.

The High Court refused to stay the order of the single-member bench and adjourned the hearing to March 14. The state government has said that the public examination of class 5 and 8, which was scheduled to be held on March 13, will be postponed.

The Department of School Education and Literacy has decided to conduct a public examination to check the learning standards of Class 5 and Class 8 students from the year 2022-23. Parents and students were upset with the department's decision. After this, a single member bench of the High Court issued an order canceling the board examination of class 5 and 8.

The parents' organization approached the court against the annual examination and the high court gave a big shock to the education department by staying the board exam.
