As per the State Education Minister Varsha Gaikwad, the results will most likely be declared by the second week of June for the HSC exams and by the second week of July for the SSC exams.

However, with a reduced syllabus. But, now more and more students are coming forward on Twitter protesting the decision for offline exams. They are saying that many teachers are completing one chapter in a day. This has made them unable to prepare efficiently for offline exams. Students have also complained about COVID protocols not being followed in schools. They are complaining that it is very difficult for them to appear for the offline exams based on online classes.
