Current status at the level of Supreme Court, CBSE and Center regarding examinations
- 521 students from across the country appearing for the CBSE board exams have filed an intervention petition with PIL. In an intervention petition filed by Advocate Tanvi Dubey representing these students, the Youth Bar Association has demanded the cancellation of the exam, opposing the board’s decision to conduct the offline examination.
- Advocate Mamta Sharma had also filed a petition in the Supreme Court on behalf of the children to cancel the exam, which has been heard on May 28 and 31.
- Hearing the petition of Advocate Mamta Sharma, the Supreme Court has told the Center that if you make a policy different from last year regarding the exam, then a strong reason has to be given for it. The Center has asked for 2 days for this. However, the bench has also said that the government is free to take its decision. The Supreme Court said that you are given time to take a decision. Whatever decision you take, you will have to make strong arguments behind it.
- Justice Khanwilkar said that the students were very hopeful that this year also there will not be an exam like last year and method system will be adopted for numbering. On the other hand, the petitioner has expressed the hope that a decision will be taken according to the policy of the board last year.
- Attorney General K.K. Venugopal said that the central government will decide in two days whether the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) and the Council of Indian School Certificate Examinations will conduct the ICSE 12th examination or not.
