Along with it, students have given many other reasons why this year CBSE and other board offline exams should be cancelled.
Muskan, a student of Class 12 said, "I did my online classes while staying at my home that is in a rural area, the connectivity was very poor and I used to miss a lot of classes due to bad internet. Giving offline board exams with such uncleared concept is very difficult."
