The nation has been under the lockdown shutting all the institutions down due to the coronavirus pandemic. All the companies and institutions are working from home. As per the educational institutions, teachers are providing online lectures and study material to the students.
Still the exams of class 10th and 12th students have not yet finished. So the major problem relating to their examinations is when class 10th and 12th exams would be conducted?
Nobody is sure enough to say for how long this lockdown will be extended and that is why it is really difficult to say when their examinations would be conducted. The Chhattisgarh Board of Secondary Education (CGBSE) the state level secondary and high secondary body, has decided that they will not conduct the remaining examinations for class 10th and 12th students.
The marks for those remaining subjects would be granted on the basis of internal assessment.
