The Delhi government put its foot down in a meeting between the states and the Centre on holding the CBSE 12th board examinations, taking a firm stand that the Centre should not even be considering holding any kind of examination until students and teachers are protected by Covid vaccines, Deputy Chief Minister and Education Minister Manish Sisodia said after the meeting.
The education minister, who is also Delhi’s nodal minister Covid-19, said that it would be irresponsible to go ahead with the examination especially at a time when the world is preparing for the third wave of the pandemic. “Conducting Board Exams in these unprecedented times would be a big mistake on behalf of the Central government. It would render our children and teachers even more vulnerable,” Sisodia said.
