NEW DELHI: The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has announced that exams for Class 10 and Class 12 are being conducted peacefully across centres in northeast Delhi, even as the district limps back to normalcy after being hit by violent communal riots last week.
In a statement released on Monday, CBSE said that it recorded an attendance of more than 98.2 percent in the district. According to the statement, 2,837 candidates out of the 2,888 registered turned up for the examinations.
The CBSE was forced to postpone four examinations in the district over the past few days as violent mobs ran amok. The schedule for these exams is yet to be announced.
The board had also announced that fresh exams will be conducted for those students who couldn’t attend exams due to the riots.
