In an interview with TOI, education minister Dharmendra Pradhan had said that the twice-a-year board format will be rolled out from 2024-25 academic year. "This means this will be adopted from the 2025 board exams for Class X and XII. This will be effective from the present Class IX and XI students,” Pradhan said to TOI .
