Girija Kulkarni ā āSir I would like to draw your attention for a moment. Please can you change the decision of conducting the board exam offline. If the classes can go on in online mode then why canāt the exams be conducted in the same manner with measures taken to ensure there is no cheating.ā
Responding to the concern on conducting the exam online, Dr. Pokhriyal said that CBSE and other boards are well-aware of the current situation and the hardships faced by the students during this academic session.

The questions will only be asked from that portion.āĀ
Furthermore, the minister also stated that online classes will still remain an option for students who are unable to physically join the school. āThe physical classes will resume and there will be 50-50 percent balance between online classes and attending classes physicallyā, he added. He also motivated and encouraged students to focus on their academics despite the pandemic situation.Ā
