The much-awaited Assam Higher Secondary Education Council (AHSEC) class 12 board examinations will take place in July-August, a letter from the state board said on Wednesday.
The examinations were scheduled to start on May 12 but were indefinitely postponed due to the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic.
AHSEC Controller of Examinations Pankaj Borthakur wrote a letter to all the in-charges of examination centers across the state and asked them to scout for more venues to maintain COVID-19 protocols while holding the tests.
In the letter, it is stated, “It is for your kind information that Assam Higher Secondary Education Council is going to conduct Higher Secondary Final Examinations, 21 in the month of July/August 2021.” Borthakur further asked the in-charge of the examination centers, that have more than 400 candidates, to take any nearby government or provincialized academic institutions as venues to maintain COVID-19 protocols.
