Meanwhile, over 8,000 parents yesterday wrote to Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan urging him to direct the CBSE to provide a hybrid option for class 10, 12 board exams 2021-22.
Referring to the advisories issued by the government of India, the WHO and various other competent authorities, the joint letter by parents said that conducting offline exams under these conditions can invite medical catastrophe.
“Students are not vaccinated yet, and about 3 per cent to 4 per cent of them are being tested positive for the virus despite getting vaccinated. It is estimated that the Covid virus is going to spread even more because of the festive season and the exams scheduled right after that become a super-spreader event if the same is conducted only in offline mode,” it added.
