Suranjana Senapati, the secretary of the board said that the regional committees will become functional in each district of the state from March 1.
However, the decision of SEBA to stop functioning of the two regional offices in Jorhat and Silchar has created a furor among some students and guardians.
The board assured that every step has been planned to address the grievances of students and parents before the decision to withdraw the two regional offices have been taken.
Moreover, SEBA has taken this decision in the middle of the ongoing HSLC examination. The HSLC examinations started from February 14 and will continue till March 6.
This year, over three lakh students are appearing in the HSLC examination.
