The date sheet notification also asked parents to make sure to teach the COVID-19 precautions that their children must take and they should also make sure not to send sick children for the exam. All students must cover their nose and mouth and must carry hand sanitiser in a transparent bottle.

CBSE had postponed all the examinations scheduled after March 18th for class 10th and 12th due to the COVID-19 lockdown. To make up for the lost time, the board had announced that it will be conducting examinations for 29 subjects instead of the remaining 41 subjects.

The evaluation process for the subjects already conducted is underway in more than 3000 evaluation centres. Teachers and evaluators are checking the answer sheets from their homes and evaluation centres are carrying out the process of transporting the answer sheets.

The minister had earlier commented that the evaluation process will be completed in 50 days and the result is expected to be declared in the month of August.
