‘West Bengal To Hold Class 12 Board Exams In July’

 “We have decided to hold the secondary (Madhyamik) and higher secondary (Uccho Madhyamik) examinations… adhering to all COVID-19 safety protocols,” Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee said. “Examinations will be held in their own schools. Students will feel at home and not have to travel in buses and public vehicles amid this pandemic,” the CM said. “Question papers had already been set… In that case, a three-hour test will now be reduced to 1.5 hours and students will be given the option to answer five questions out of 10. This will help the boards and the examinees amid this tough situation,” Banerjee said.
