A meeting on Sunday could not arrive at a decision on the pending Std XII board exams. Union education minister Ramesh Pokhriyal Nishank sought suggestions from states by May 25 and said a final call will be taken at the earliest.

Delhi's Deputy CM Manish Sisodia said holding exams without vaccinating the students will prove to be a big mistake. "CBSE's first option was conducting the exams in the present format for major subjects and marking for the rest of the subjects on the basis of the performance in these papers," he said later. "The second was having the exams in the students' home schools, reducing the duration and changing the exam pattern. The Delhi government isn't in favour of these options. We can't play with the safety of students just to fulfil our stubborn wishes."

C'garh Std XII board exams from June 1

The Chhattisgarh Board of Secondary Education will conduct its Std XII exams from June 1, officials said. The order said students can collect question papers on any date between June 1 and 5. They would have to submit the answer copies at their respective centres within five days from the date of collection of the question papers.
