Meanwhile, the Maharashtra State Board of Secondary and Higher Secondary Education (MSBSHSE) will conduct the board exams from March 4 to March 30 for HSC or class 12 students. The SSC or class 10 board exams 2022 will be held from March 15 to April 4. This year, exams will be held as per schedule in the offline mode amid students’ protest.
The students had earlier gathered to protest against the offline exams. The students had protested in Ashok Mill Naka in Dharavi, Mumbai near the residence of Maharashtra education minister Varsha Gaikwad demanding cancellation of the exams. They argued that since the classes have been held online, the exams also must be conducted online. They further added that due to online classes there was learning loss and hence the offline exams must be cancelled.
