Conducting CBSE Class XII board exams would be a big mistake: Sisodia

Govt. tells Centre to cancel exams at national-level meeting

Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia on Sunday said conducting CBSE Class XII examinations would be a big mistake on behalf of the Centre as it would render children and teachers even more vulnerable to COVID-19 at a time when there are 2.5 lakh new cases in our country being reported daily. He said at the national-level meeting hosted by Education Ministry on conducting Class XII board exams, the Delhi government had suggested that the Centre completely cancel the exams if vaccination students before it is not possible. It also suggested the ‘no-exam policy’ for students, awarding grades on the basis of their unit tests, pre-board exams, practical exams, similar to Class X grade’s promotional policy. The government said students should also be given a choice to re-take exams for improvement, in case they are not satisfied with their results.
