A bench of Justices A.M. Khanwilkar and Dinesh Maheshwari said: “Counsel for the state of Assam and state of Tripura have informed the court that concerned Board of the respective states have cancelled the ensuing Class XII Board Examination, 2021. Counsel for the state of Karnataka, on instructions, informed the Court that the state Board has cancelled the Class XII Board Examination, in the state of Karnataka.”

The bench noted that as far as the Class X board examination, 2021 is concerned, no final decision has been taken so far by Karnataka. “Let the aforementioned position be brought on record in the course of the day. Affidavits in that regard be filed through email,” said the top court in its order, on a plea seeking cancellation of state board Class XII exams. IANS
