As a result, the state government will conduct the exams ensuring all the safety precautions for the Class 10 Class 12 Board Exam 2021 students of the state.

Though there was much anticipation earlier that the Andhra Pradesh Class 10 Class 12 Board Exam 2021 might be postponed, the Chief Minister of the state YS Jagan Mohan Reddy gave his nod for the SSC and Intermediate exams to be held after a high-level meeting on April 23, 2021. It also has to be noted that the permission for conducting the AP SSC and Intermediate 2021 exams have been granted, the officials have been instructed to maintain strict COVID-19 guidelines and protocols to ensure the safety of the students.
