Confirmed: CBSE says no re-test of Class 10 maths; top 10 developments

The CBSE Class 10 mathematics re-exam has been scrapped, HRD Secretary Anil Swarup tweeted. The tweet said that the CBSE has decided to not conduct the re-exam after evaluating the impact of the leaked paper and keeping in mind the best interests of the students. Earlier, the board had decided to conduct the re-exam only in the states of Delhi NCR and Haryana. However, Swarup made it clear in his tweet that there won't be any re-test in those two states too.

Following the CBSE paper leak, the board had announced that the test centres would from now on receive an encrypted copy of the question papers on e-mail which they would need to download and print themselves.

As a result, CBSE exams in several centres in Delhi started late as they found it difficult to follow the new "leak-proof" system put in place. According to ToI report, that the new method comes with 'technical glitches' that would inevitably delay the exams.

Delhi Police Crime Branch on Monday questioned the principal of the school, whose two teachers were arrested for their alleged role in CBSE paper leak.
