CBSE to re-conduct exam in Class X- maths , Class XII-economics

New Delhi, March 28: The CBSE on Wednesday said it will re-conduct examination in the maths and economics papers for Class X and Class XII respectively following the leak of question papers even as a Delhi Police probe is underway.

"The CBSE has decided to re-conduct the examination to uphold the sanctity of board examinations and in the interest of fairness to the students," said a Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) statement.

The new dates for the examinations and other details will be hosted on the CBSE website within a week.

The CBSE held the exam for the Class XII Economics paper on Monday and the Class X Maths paper on Wednesday.

The board move comes after a handwritten note with the same questions as the CBSE question papers was found circulating on social media message application days before the exams in these papers were conducted.
