CBSE Board exams 2021: Centre reconsidering its decision to hold offline exam, change dates

It may be noted that the CBSE Board exams are scheduled to be held from May 4 in the offline (traditional pen and paper) mode.

However, if the Education Ministry sources are to be believed, both the Education Ministry and the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) officials are discussing if the Class 10, 12 board exams could be postponed in view of an unprecedented rise in COVID-19 cases.

While the government is open to reconsidering the exam dates, the Board officials are not sure that there will be any changes in exam schedule announced earlier.
