The Commissioner of School Education said in a statement, “Questionnaires have been found in both the schools. Appropriate criminal action will be taken against those responsible for this. Departmental action will be taken against government officials who do not follow the guidelines given by the Director of Examinations. According to the schedule already published, the diversion selections will continue without any change. “
It is alleged that the District Primary Education Officer had sent the questionnaires to be handed over to the school principals on the day of the examination in violation of the examination rules a few days ago.
In this situation, Thiruvannamalai District Primary Education Officer Arulselvam has been suspended. In that post, Villupuram District Principal Education Officer Krishnapriya has been given full additional responsibility by the School Education Department.
It is said that due to the corona epidemic, the question papers may have been published with the intention that this diversion exam score could be taken as a general exam score. To alleviate the confusion of the students, the school education department has announced that the general examination will be held this year.
