Jharkhand: Class 10, 12 Board Exams In Offline Mode From March 24
A day after the Supreme Court dismissed a plea to cancel offline board exams, the Jharkhand Academic Council (JAC) has informed that it will conduct the Class 10 and 12 board exams in offline mode from March 24.
The Jharkhand Board Exams will be conducted while strictly adhering to the COVID-19 protocols. Around eight lakh students are expected to appear for the exams this year in the State.
“We are all prepared for taking the board examinations for class 10 and class 12 from March 24. The examination will take place in offline mode. However, all Covid guidelines including social distancing and wearing mask will be ensured at the examination places,” JAC secretary Mahip Kumar Singh told PTI.
The Class 10 and 12 board exams will conclude on April 20 and April 25, respectively. “The number of students appearing in both examinations will be higher than the previous year,” Singh said.
The board exams will be conducted in two sittings- Class 10 exams in first sitting and Class 12 exams in second sitting.
The State had earlier cancelled the board examinations in 2021 due to COVID-19 pandemic and promoted more than 7.5 lakh Class 9 and 11 students to higher classes without exams.
