Exams only after evaluating overall situation: Minister Pokharel



KATHMANDU: Minister for Education, Science and Technology, Giriraj Mani Pokharel said the government would conduct delayed examinations of Grade 10, 11 and 12 only after evaluating the situation of the country.

Minister Pokharel said the government was not in a state to fix the examination date now because of the uncertain situation of the country, The Rising Nepal reported.

But the Ministry has started holding discussions with concerned authorities after it received a report from the National Examinations Board (NEB) about the possibilities of conducting the examinations, he said. The NEB Thursday said it could conduct examinations three weeks after the lockdown was lifted.

The Minister said, “I have asked joint secretaries of the Ministry to give suggestions regarding the report submitted by the NEB. So, only after discussions within the Ministry, it will propose to the Cabinet and High-Level Committee prior to declaring the date of the examinations.”
