Putting all the rumours to rest, the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) clarified that it has not yet decided on the schedule for remaining board exams for Classes 10 and 12.
The clarification was issued amid huge speculations regarding Class 10 board exams, the CBSE said.
Earlier, the CBSE said that 10 days prior notice will be given to students before the decisions of the exam.
Yesterday, the Delhi government had requested the Union HRD minister to cancel the remaining board exams for Classes 10 and 12 in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The CBSE in the statement said:” Recently there has been a lot of speculation regarding 10th CBSE Board exams. It is reiterated that the board’s decision to take board exams for 29 subjects of class 10 and 12, stands the same as mentioned in a circular dated April 1, 2020.”
The board also said that “it is difficult for the board to decide and announce the new schedule for examinations at his stage”.
Not only CBSE, but many competitive exams were also cancelled or postponed due to ongoing COVID-19 crisis in the nation.
