The Press Information Bureau (PIB) dismissed the news as 'fake' and described it as baseless.
CBSE Class 10th, 12th students and teachers got confused after a news report claiming that only those who will pass the pre-board exams will be given the admit card to appear for the CBSE Board exams 2021. This fake news has been making rounds in social media recently.
The article, which has been doing rounds on Facebook, Twitter, and WhatsApp, claims that the Pre-Board exams would be conducted twice and students would need to pass in both in order to get the admit card for final board exams scheduled to be held from May 4 till June 10 in offline mode.
