Karnataka Primary and secondary education minister S Suresh Kumar on Sunday cleared the air about summer vacation and promotion without examinations for school students in the state, saying that there is no such announcement.

The clarification was made in order to stop the rumours that were spreading about the summer vacation of school students.

Further, the minister informed that the news that the next class will be passed without examination is not true.

“Many programs through Akadhavani being presented for the benefit of the children of one to the fifth-grade government school in the classes are also taking place on television as well,” he said.

“Teachers are reviewing student learning progress with the help of local resources. The schools have not announced a summer holiday,” he added.
