Tamil Nadu Government has taken a decision to not conduct other exams for undergraduate and postgraduate students as the present atmosphere is not yet conducive to conduct any examination or classes. However final semester exams will be conducted for undergraduate and postgraduate students, said Tamil Nadu Chief Minister K Palaniswami on Wednesday.
Except the final semester exams, students who have paid fee for subjects related to other semesters and waiting for exams shall be exempted from taking the examinations and they would be awarded marks, he said.
The decision has been taken after accepting the request of students considering their welfare and as per the recommendations of a high level committee, said Palaniswami.
Also, the move is in sync with the guidelines of the University Grants Commission and the All India Council for Technical Education, he noted.
Palaniswami said he has directed the Higher Education Department to issue a detailed Government Order on the matter.
