CBSE increases examination centres by 50% to ensure social distancing

The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has added 2,500 more examination centres this year, in India and abroad, in order to ensure social distancing during the Class 10 and 12 board exams scheduled to be held from May 4, officials said, even as the board reiterated that it is not considering any change in the exam schedule, amid demands to cancel the exams in view of the second Covid-19 wave across the country.

Around 340,000 students are likely to take the board exams this year.

Sanyam Bhardwaj, CBSE controller examinations, on Thursday said the board has decided to set up around 7,500 examination centres in India and abroad this year, in comparison to last year’s 5,000-odd centres.
