40 days Needed to Hold Exams
While the Education Minister has said that the State government plans to hold the exam in July, many academic experts have termed the decision as challenging. Keeping in mind previous year’s trends, the board would need at least 40 days to hold the exams. In addition to this, it would also have to take into account holding of national and state level entrance exams including JEE Main and NEET 2021 as well while holding the exams. For admission to higher education institutions, students would need their marksheet and therefore holding of exams on July might be a challenge.
