For class 12, the subjects are Hindi elective, Gujarati, Nepali, Kashmiri and Hindi core. The roll number and examination centre allotted to the students as per their admit cards remains same.

Meanwhile, CBSE is re-conducting the Class 12 Economics paper on April 25 due to paper leak. While earlier, both Economics and Mathematics were supposed to be re-conducted, the Board later decided that the Mathematics paper would not be held again in the larger interest of students. The board also doubted any major impact that paper leak may have in final results.

Besides arresting a coaching centre owner and 2 teachers and a tutor in Delhi, Police has also apprehended three people, including a teacher, clerk and support staff, in Himachal Pradesh in connection to the case.
