Delhi: Syed Shamael Ahmed National President, Private School and Children’s Welfare Association. Has writte to CBSE demanding that the penalty of 2000 that is imposed on students due to late filing of CBSE exam form should be waived off because of the extraordinary situations.

He said that as the entire country is suffering from the corona virus-borne epidemic and even the CBSE also knows that the jobs and employment of the many parents have ended due to the Covid19 Pandemic. Therefore, the CBSE which has kept the last date of filling the examination form for Class X and XII till October 30 and has imposed a fine of Rs 2000 for delay of one day, should cancel it for this year. The date of filling the form should also be extended till thirty November so that parents can get more time to fill the examination form of their children.
