On May 5, IPEMC had rejected the proposal to promote 9th and 11th grade students and to conduct examinations of only optional subjects for class 10th and 12th. However, it was agreed in principle to conduct the examinations in two phases due to the prevailing Covid-19 situation in the country. Taking to Twitter, the education minister also clarified that grade 9th and 11th exams will take place according to the time table of the respective boards. “No truth in rumours that they will not be held,” he wrote on his official handle.

"The first proposal was to promote 9th and 11th graders to the next classes without examinations in view of the current dire situation of Covid-19 but the education ministers present at the meeting rejected the proposal," he added. He said that there was no scope for promotion policy and students would have to go through the examination process in any case, after which the second proposal put forward by IBCC was agreed upon following deliberations.
