Last week, the new dates for the remaining examinations of CBSE board 10th and 12th have been announced between July 1 and 15. Now, out of the remaining 83 subjects in these examinations, only 29 important subjects will be tested. Taking advantage of this opportunity, some mischievous elements are making a fake timetable viral on WhatsApp, while no such time table has been released yet. On this, Union HRD Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal Nishank has clarified the situation by tweeting, and the tweet issued by PIB has made the time table going viral.

What is going viral

In the screenshot which is going viral on WhatsApp, on Wednesday, July 1, the examination is being started with the 12th class Business Studies subject. After this, information is being given about Hindi Elective on 02 July, Hindi Core, Accountancy on 03 July, Chemistry on 04 July, Sunday Leave on 05, Physics on 06 July, and English on 07. Apart from this, the examination of all the three streams of computer is being told on July 08 and their timings are between 10:30 am to 1:00 pm.

Nishank made two tweets on Saturday, in which earlier he had talked about the release of the date sheet at 5 pm, but by tweeting it another three hours later, citing some technical reasons for the new date sheet to be released on Monday, May 18 has given an update.

The government’s publicity agency, PIB, gave a clarification in this regard via a fact check on twitter on Saturday. It clearly states that this WhatsApp is fake. However, the time given by PIB for the time table on May 16, Saturday 5 pm has changed. Now the new date sheet will come on Monday, 18 May.
