An official from the Tamil Nadu Parents� Welfare Association has said, The timetable has disappointed students and parents. After floods many are still recovering from the agony. The authorities had not considered this fact. After the half-yearly examinations which end on January 22, there will be just more than a month left for the annual examination.
The sentiment is shared by educationists too. A prominent educationist in the city said, The sole reason behind scheduling the examinations early is Assembly election. It is very insensitive on the part of the state government to keep a gap of one month or so. They are doing it solely because of election.
