As coronavirus cases are rising across the country, parents and teachers have asked the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) to conduct the upcoming class 10, 12 board examinations in online mode either from students’ homes or respective schools/colleges. This comes as the demand for the cancellation of the board examinations is growing louder with every passing day. While the CBSE and CISCE both have clarified that the exams will be held as per schedule, over 1 lakh students across the country have signed a petition on change.org to reconsider its decision, in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. ‘

                  

Earlier on Friday, Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra had hit out at the CBSE for holding Class 10, 12 Board Exams amid rising corona cases across the country. The Congress leader had said, “It is downright irresponsible of boards like the CBSE to force students to sit for exams under the prevailing circumstances. Board exams should be canceled, rescheduled or arranged in a manner that does not require the physical presence of children at crowded exam centers.”
