Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra
Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Friday slammed the choice of the schooling boards within the nation, together with the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), to conduct exams beneath the deteriorating Covid-19 scenario within the nation.
In a tweet, she mentioned: “It is downright irresponsible of boards like the CBSE to force students to sit for exams under the prevailing circumstances. Board exams should either be cancelled, rescheduled or arranged in a manner that does not require the physical presence of children at crowded exam centres.”
Her remarks got here a day after each the CBSE and Council for the Indian School Certificate Examinations (CISCE) mentioned that enough security preparations are being made for college students and all Covid-19 tips can be adopted throughout the exams.
The two boards responded after the hashtag, ‘cancel board exams’ trended on Twitter on Wednesday and Thursday.Â
