Rajasthan government won’t promote students without exams this year

The Rajasthan government has announced that students of class 9 and 11 won’t be promoted without taking the final exams. A new initiative by the state government -- ‘Come Learn at Home’ -- encourages students to study at their homes as educational institutions in the state will remain closed till November 30.

Schools and other educational institutes in Rajasthan have remained shut for more than seven months due to the coronavirus crisis.

For the reopening of schools, the Rajasthan government has released standard operating procedures (SOPs) that will be applicable to every educational institution in the state.
