CBSE Board Examination datesheet to release at 5 PM today

New Delhi : The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) will be releasing the datesheet for the remaining exams for Class 10 and 12 at 5 PM today, Education Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal said. The examinations were postponed due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

The education board had announced that the pending board exams for Classes 10 and 12 will be conducted in 29 crucial subjects. The board was not able to conduct the Class 10 and 12 exams on eight days due to the outbreak of coronavirus.

"Attention Students! Releasing the date sheet for #CBSE Board Examinations for Class 10th and 12th today at 5.00 pm. Stay tuned for more details," Dr Pokhriyal tweeted.

Earlier this month, the Education Minister had said that the examination for Class 12 will be held for 12 main subjects in the last week of July.

Schools and colleges across the nation remain closed during the nationwide lockdown.

The results for the board exams are likely to be announced in August, before the premium Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) declare the entrance test results.
