The reason for that was because of the public examinations and vaccination of these students in the schools for the sake of their health.
Now, there are many suggestions coming from the parents and academicians regarding canceling direct physical classes for the students belonging to the classes 10 to 12 due to the rise in the number of Coronavirus and Omicron cases in TN.
