Around 300 students write to CJI against offline mode of CBSE exam
Around 300 students of Class 12 on Tuesday sent a letter petition to the Chief Justice of India (CJI) NV Ramana to cancel the CBSE’s decision to conduct physical examinations amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. The students asked the top court to direct the Central government to provide alternative assessment scheme to the students.
This came after a high-level meeting chaired by Union Defence Minister Rajnath Singh reached a consensus on conduct of board exams. However, the government had sought a detailed list of suggestions from all the states. The CBSE Class 12 examination is likely to be conducted and its date and format are to be announced by Union Education Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal Nishank on May 30.
