Gujarat govt cancels GSEB Class 12 Board Exams 2021

The government of Gujarat has decided to cancel the upcoming GSEB Class 12 board exams 2021 in the state in view of the pandemic.

The government of Gujarat has decided to follow in the footsteps of the central government by announcing the cancellation of the GSEB Class 12 Board Exams 2021 in the state, in view of the current Covid-19 situation. Students and parents across the states have been pushing for the cancellation of the board exams for the past few months, citing health and mental wellbeing amid the current pandemic as a reason. Much to their relief, the exams now stand cancelled in Gujarat. Last week, the government of Gujarat asked the Centre to help them vaccinate all those above the age of 18 who were set to appear for the Class 12 board exams. Experts also said that while vaccination for students is necessary, it is impractical at the moment.
