Fees are waived in the certificate examinations for candidates who are dependants of persons who hold a full medical card. The State Examinations Commission has statutory responsibility for operational matters relating to the certificate examinations. This include the charging and collection of fees for examinations. In view of this I have forwarded your query to the State Examinations Commission for direct reply to you.
