The Democratic Alliance (DA) in parliament is calling for Basic Education Minister, Angie Motshekga to relook the 2021 matric examination time table to accommodate the upcoming Local Government Elections on the first of November.
The party says because the voting day coincides with the start of the writing of the exams, it will deprive all the eligible learners their rights to vote.
Party Spokesperson on Education Baxolile Nodada says in the past, election days were often declared as public holiday days.
“The first concern is that some matrics who are eligible to vote may be unable to do so due to writing exams. Secondly, if the start of the exams is not postponed, the IEC which often uses schools as voting stations will face challenges in this regard. And lastly, given that the election day is declared as a public holiday-this creates further difficulties around teachers, around invigilators exercising their democratic rights to vote.”

It is a hustle story of four lives and their struggle to live."
Stating about the whole idea of writing this film Ravi Singh added, "The film consists of 4 stories and I got inspiration from my surroundings through observation. So these are not imaginary characters and are adapted from real lives. I just gave words to them. It's a story that resides in every family, city, village, etc. It's a story of common people like us."
Ravi Singh is elated to work with such fabulous actors and shares, "Sanjay Mishra, Ranvir Shorey, and Raghav Juyal are all great actors with amazing acting, great comic timing, and fabulous performances. I'm very humbled and happy to work with them as they always provided that comfort space for me. So I'm really looking forward to creating a great Hasal journey with them."
