CBSE class 10 result 2015, which was delayed time and again, was finally announced on Thursday i.e. May 28, 2015 at 2 pm on official websites cbse.nic.in and cbseresults.nic.in.
On Monday, Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) had made an announcement on its website cbseresults.nic.in that it will be announcing class X results on Wednesday i.e. May 27, 2015. However, on Tuesday uncertainty was created after the board removed the announcement from its websites. Finally, on May 28, much to the students’ relief, the board announced the results.
However, much frustration was caused immediately thereafter as the CBSE servers crashed and no one was able to log-in to check causing further stress and anxiety for all.
