Earlier last month, CBSE had postponed the class 12 board exams, scheduled to begin from May 4, and had said that a final decision will be taken on June 1. “A notice of at least 15 days will be given before the start of the examinations,” the board had said while announcing the postponement.
Later, CISCE and several state boards followed the suit and deferred class 12 boards. But now, with the unprecedented surge in coronavirus cases, students, parents and a section of teachers have been pushing for cancellation of offline exams. Students have requested the board and education ministry to promote them on the basis of internal assessment and pre-board exams.
To make their demands heard, students took to Twitter and shared their opinions using hashtags like #modiji_cancel12thboards, CancelExamsSaveStudents and #CancelBoardExams2021.
Take a look at some of the tweets here:
