Supreme Court dismisses plea seeking cancellation of Term 2 board exams- Education News

The Supreme Court dismissed the petition seeking cancellation of offline exams for CBSE Class 10 and 12, after hearing the arguments of the petitioner. The petition which sought the cancellation of Term 2 board exams being conducted by the CBSE and educational boards was heard yesterday.

The petitioner had asked for the board examinations to be conducted in the same manner as they were conducted last year. A bench of Justice AM Khanwilkar, Justice Dinesh Maheshwari, and Justice CT Ravikumar said to the petitioner that considering your petition means there is more confusion. The court added that by filing this application in the name of public interest litigation, the petitioner has already created a lot of confusion among the students and parents. The petitioner argued that the court had considered a similar petition last year too and that the situation is more or less the same, adding that online classes have been going on, but the courses have not been completed yet and the students haven’t got the chance to study regularly in schools. The court replied saying the board and the authorities related to the examination are also aware of things and that “There is no point in interfering in this,”, while adding that the petition was not justified at all.
