Nagpur, Jan 23On the second consecutive year, the inter-school and federations' sports events were not organised against the backdrop of Covid-19 pandemic. However, the state government has decided to give sports grace marks to SSC and HSC students and for that they have issued the guidelines.The commissioner of sports and youth welfare department of the state government Om Prakash Bakoria had sent a letter on January 19, 2020 to the additional commissioner of education department requesting them to consider the performance of SSC and HSC students at district, state, national and international- level from sixth standard onwards for the grace marks.It is also mentioned in the letter that due to Covid-19 the permission for inter-school sports competitions was not given in the year 2021-22 but the number of sports associations conducted the selection trials . Although the beneficiary students participated at state or national level from sixth standard onwards to ninth, they were not able to participate during their SSC and HSC year.
