The SSC exams in Telangana state were scheduled from June 8 to July 5, 2020.
Earlier, the Telangana High Court had said that barring the GMHC area, the TS SSC exams in the rest of the state could be conducted with precautions, say reports.
The report further added that the High Court has ordered the government to come up with an answer by Saturday afternoon, failing which will result in cancellation of the examination.
