CHENNAI: A division bench of the Madras High Court has directed the State government to file by June
11, a status report with supporting documents with regard to the conduct of Class-X public examinations. The bench of Justices M Sathyanarayanan and Anita Sumanth gave the directive on Wednesday while passing interim orders on a PIL petition from one V Elangovan, whose son was to write the exam.
He sought to postpone the exams, which was originally scheduled to commence from June 1, on various grounds arising out of the on going lockdown due to Covid-19 pandemic and the difficulties faced by the students.
