The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has announced that it will conduct a special examination for students who are unable to attend their exams on March 15, 2025, due to Holi celebrations in some regions. While the festival is typically observed on March 14, in certain regions, the celebrations will take place on March 15 or extend into that day. To accommodate these students, the board has decided to offer them an opportunity to appear for the exam at a later date, ensuring no student is disadvantaged due to the festivities.
The Hindi Core (302)/Hindi Elective (002) exams for Class 12 are scheduled to be held on March 15, 2025. “It has been informed to CBSE that, though the festival of Holi would be celebrated on 14th March, 2025, in most parts of the country, in few places, either the celebrations would take place on 15th March, 2025 or celebrations would spill over to 15th March, 2025,” reads the official notice.
“Accordingly, in view of the constraints that some students may face, it has been decided that, while Exainination would be held on 15.03.2025, those students who find it difficult to appear in the same may decide not to appear on that day, i.e., 15.03.2025. It has, further, been decided that such students would be given an opportunity to appear along with those students for whom a special examination is conducted as per the policy of the Board, whereby a special examination is conducted for students participating in National or International level sports events,” the notice added.
