The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has advised students to ignore a fake notification being circulated about the rescheduling of classes 10, 12 Board exam. The CBSE will conduct board exams as scheduled from May 4 to June 10.
A fake CBSE classes 10, 12 exam schedule is being circulated on social media tweaking the last year’s exam circular, the board in a communique mentioned.
The board advised students to ignore the circular. “There are some persons deliberately trying to create confusion about this year’s board exams by circulating old news of 1.4.20 regarding 10th and 12th exams. Students should ignore this old circular of last year and not be misled. Board has not issued any such information,” CBSE official said.
Meanwhile, in wake of the pandemic, the board has decided that the CBSE exams for Class 10 and Class 12 will only be conducted for 29 main subjects that are important for promotion and admission to higher educational institutions.
"Have advised CBSE to conduct board exams only for 29 main subjects that are required for promotion and crucial for university admissions. Whenever CBSE is in a position to hold board exams, it shall conduct for 29 subjects by giving adequate notice. For the rest of the subjects, CBSE will not hold board exams and instructions for their marking, assessment will be issued soon," Union HRD Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal 'Nishank' announced on Wednesday.
