CBSE Board Exams 2021: false date sheet circulating on social media, says GDP – education

A fake date sheet of the 2021 CBSE board exams for classes 10 and 12 is circulating on social media, the GDP fact-checking team said on Twitter. “A date sheet for the 2020-21 class 12 and 10 exams supposedly issued by the #CBSE is in circulation on social media. #PIBFactCheck: This date sheet is #Fake. Although, @DrRPNishank has announced that the Class 10 and 12 Board Exams will be held from May 4 to June 10, 2021, ”the GDP data verification team tweet reads.

On December 31, Education Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal Nishank announced that the CBSE Board 2021 exams will take place between May 4 and June 10 and their results will be declared before July 15. The practical exams will take place on the school premises from March 1.

Earlier this week, CBSE exam controller Sanyam Bhardwaj specified that the board “would not dilute exam quality measures.” “Generally, schools would have time between January and mid-February to take board exams. This time, however, after consulting with all stakeholders, we have increased that time frame. Schools can take practical exams between March and June 10. This would allow schools the flexibility to conduct practical exams in smaller batches while maintaining social distancing and other Covid-19 guidelines. “
