The state government suspended the transportation facility on March 23.

However, due to the unavailability of the transport facility, teachers couldn’t carry the Maharashtra SSC and HSC exam papers home. The education department later announced that the assessment of the board exam answer sheets will begin after the lockdown. According to the sources, over 17 lakh students appeared for the Maharashtra SSC Board Exam 2020 and over 13 lakh students appeared for the Maharashtra HSC Board Exam 2020.
