Centre's meeting over CBSE 12th board exam inconclusive

A high-level meet could not arrive at a decision on the pending Class 12 board exams on Sunday.

Education Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal Nishank sought detailed suggestions from state governments by May 25 and asserted that "an informed, collaborative" final call will be taken at the earliest.

The virtual meeting was convened to decide on the Class 12 board exams and subsequent entrance examinations that were postponed due to the second wave of Covid-19.

After the deliberations, Nishank said, he is confident that the government will be able to arrive at an informed, decision and remove the uncertainty among student's and parent's minds by informing them of our final decision at the earliest.
