It is submitted that the Applicant/proposed intervenors were approached by the affected aspirant students who are compelled to appear physically for XI class exam by the State Authority. 3. That in the present petition six students studying in Plus One class have approached the Hon’ble High Court under Article 226 impugning notification dated 28.5.2021 issued by General Education Department of the State by which the First Year Higher Secondary Examination has been scheduled to be held from 6.9.2021 to 16.9.2021. The petitioners have sought for quashing the notification and cancel the Plus One final examination for the academic year 2020-2021. In one of the writ petitions, directions have been sought to the Board of Higher Secondary 9 Examinations to frame a guideline for conducting Plus One Final Year examinations internally in each school. 4. It is contended that due to COVID - 19 pandemic, tutoring for Classes XI and XII are conducted online. Due to poor electronic connectivity, network range issues and the non- availability of electronic devices, the studies of the majority students from rural as well as costal area has been adversely affected and even there are other students in the school who suffer the same handicaps. 5. The applicants further contends that they are residing in coastal and rural area where internet connectivity is very poor. They have not been able to attend the online classes regularly due to the above fact. The classes for Plus OneI commenced on the last week of June 2021 and the scheduling of the final year exam of Plus One while the classes for XII are going on will result in untold misery to the students. According to the applicants, the online classes are not very effective and students who are better placed and financially well off will have an unfair advantage. It is contended that even during discussions in the assembly, the digital divide prevailing in the State was highlighted and though it was assured that no efforts shall be spared to bridge the divide, nothing worthwhile has happened.
