Certificates of HSLC-HS Exams 2021 Will Be Valid for All Govt Appointments: Education Minister Ranuj Pegu

GUWAHATI: The numbers obtained by the students who are this year's candidates of either High School Leaving Certificate (HSLC) or Assam Higher Secondary Education Council (HSSLC) under the Assam Secondary Education Board or Higher Secondary Education Council will be considered vailed for all government appointments, said Education Minister Ranuj Pegu.

The minister also said that their mark sheets and certificates will be accepted as vailed documents during their admission to any educational institute. He added that the state government has withdrawn clause -5 of the earlier notification served regarding the holding of the HSLC and HSSLC exams this year.

"Today we have held a detailed discussion on the matter and decided to withdraw clause-5 of the earlier notification," he said. The clause mandated that this year's HSLC and HSSLC students must appear in an examination near future.

Earlier, Assam Chief Minister Dr. Himanta Biswa Sarma said that there has been a misunderstanding regarding the HSLC, HS 2020-21 batch getting government jobs in the state. Addressing a presser in the national capital, Dr. Sarma said that there has been a misunderstanding regarding the HSLC, HS 2020-21 batch getting government jobs in the state.

CM Himanta Biswa Sarma said that the current HSLC and HS batch will only not get TET jobs as it requires marks from HSLC and HS while applying for it. However, there will be other alternatives that the government will find out in concern with the issue, informed the CM. "The other batches will not get jobs for 10 years if this happens, so this problem is only related to TET," added the Assam CM.
