“As the academic session in 2020-21 was disrupted due to the pandemic, we have decided to provisionally promote students studying in classes five, eight, nine and eleven to their next classes,” Nath said.
He said that the school authorities will evaluate these classes after reopening of schools as mark sheets are required for the students to get different scholarships including the post-metric scholarship.
The Tripura government’s decision comes days after the state announced to promote students of classes one, two, three, four, six and seven to their respective next classes.
