Earlier, some CBSE students had voiced their agitation. Before Pokhriyal, the CBSE had hinted on the dates saying that the Class X and XII CBSE exams will not be conducted before March. Usually, the CBSE exams were conducted in two phases. While the practical exams used to be conducted in the month of January, the theory exams used to commence in the month of March. Over a million students had appeared for the CBSE Class X, XII exams in March, 2020. However, due to the Covid protocols, there might be some changes in terms of number of students allowed in an examination hall. Standard hygiene practices such as masks and sanitisers will be allowed during the CBSE exams.
