The CBSE will announce a detailed schedule of the exams later this evening, the minister reportedly said.
Examinations in foreign countries are likely to be announced soon, news agency PTI had earlier reported. Earlier, board exams in schools situated in foreign countries were cancelled. However, several concerns were raised by students about their future prospects including admissions in foreign universities.
In response to the concerns of students in foreign countries a senior HRD official told PTI, "Considering the different situation at different places, having a common solution is not practically feasible. However, if the situation has improved in some countries, it would be better to conduct exams at least there. For example, we have a school in Japan, if the situation is better in that particular area, the exam can be conducted."
There are over 210 CBSE affiliated schools in 25 countries across the globe.
This year, a total of 23,844 students from foreign students were appearing for class 10 exams while 16,103 students had registered for class 12 exams.
Meanwhile, in India class 10, 12 board exams were held till March 18. CBSE had updated that the remaining exams will be held for 29 main subjects only.
However, in India the class 12 exam will resume. Class 10 exams will be held in schools located in north east part of Delhi where the exam could not be conducted because of riots.
The HRD minister Ramesh Pokhriyal had said during the live interaction on May 5 that CBSE will take the decisions of the final dates in the next couple of days.
Students, teachers, and all stake holders will get a t least 10-day notice before scheduling the exams. This information has been given in the circular uploaded by CBSE on April 1.
Students are requested to keep a check on the official website to get the latest updates.
