Agartala: The Tripura cabinet approved the decision to declare 20 schools in the state as specified category schools. In addition, students from Class 1 to 4, 6 and 7 have been promoted to higher classes, education minister Ratan Lal Nath said.
Speaking with reporters, Nath said that the decision was made because of a sudden surge of coronavirus cases. However, the students will be evaluated once classes resume in schools. But, even if a student gets low marks, they will be promoted to the next class.
“The present government has given priority to quality education as per the Right to Education Act. The children from any part of Tripura will get the opportunity to study in these schools,” Nath said.
