“A campaign will be launched by the ministry of education to seek views from students, parents and teachers on how and when to conduct the exams next year”, tweeted the minister.
He had also asked the National Testing Agency (NTA) to review the present situation across different states and share a revised syllabus for 2021 JEE Main and NEET exams.
The NTA will finalize the revised syllabus only after a review of all central school education boards.
“NTA will come out with the syllabus for competitive exams after assessment of the existing scenario in various boards”, tweeted the minister.
Although the central board is likely to take a call on this soon, there are speculations of most schools conducting the practical exams in January.
Meanwhile, the CBSE has also released sample papers and marking schemes for the board exams.
