In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, the students have demanded postponement of the Institute of Chartered Accountant of India (ICAI) CA exams.
The ICAI is set to conduct the November session of exams through offline mode.
However, On Tuesday, students took to social media and expressed their unwillingness to appear in the offline exams, citing health and safety concerns.
Previously, ICAI increased the number of examination centers to facilitate social distancing.
Students, however, have said that offline exams come with serious health risks.
“Dear ICAI, Kindly address the students’ concerns on November exams. Many people are affected by COVID including our CA aspirants. It is a humble request to postpone the exams for another one month. Please consider the lives of CA students and their families,” one student tweeted.
“Don’t postpone exams but give us surety of our loved ones we did not sign up for govt exams for a reason @theicai we signed up for a better management please look at a way out I request you lets not delay our future but let’s not play with our lives,” a student said.
