 13.  In this  regard  the  District  Educational  Officers  are  requested  to  print and supply  the  question  papers  for  class  VIII  students  of government  schools  for mathematics  and   general   science   through  DCEBs  which   were   prepared   by SCERT-AP   based    on   the   questions   existing   in   TABS   in   the   prescribed syllabus.
