CBSE 10th & 12th result expected to be out by August 15 says HRD minister

CBSE Class X and XII are expected to released by August 15, according to Union minister for human resource development (HRD) Ramesh Pokhriyal. The delay is due to the board's exams and evaluation schedule getting disrupted because of Covid-19 pandemic and the ensuing lockdown.

A double whammy for the board was some of its class 10 papers also getting postponed due to riots in North East Delhi. Central Board of Secondary Education will resume exams for all leftover subjects from July 1. Pokhriyal told to conduct of the remaining exams and evaluation work will be coordinated for timely declaration of resul ts. "The exams will go on, while evaluation work too will continue. We will try our best to ensure CBSE board exam results are declared by August 15," he said.

He added CBSE had been working to complete evaluation work despite the challenges. "We had taken special permission from home ministry to deliver 1.5 crore answer sheets to evaluators' doorstep from 3,000 centres," said Pokhriyal.
