Srinagar, Oct 13: The JK
Board of School Educa-
style="text-align: justify;">tion (BOSE) has convened
a meeting of its academic
committee to decide about
holding annual regular
exams of the class 11th stu-
dents. The meeting has also
discussed holding annual
style="text-align: justify;">exams of class 8th and 9th
students as well.
A Board official con-
firmed that the academic
committee convened a
meeting to decide about
the mode of holding exams
of class 11th students was
held few days ago. The
official, however, ruled
out any chance of grant-
ing mass promotion to the
class 11th students.
“There is no chance of
giving mass promotion to
students of any class. The
government has already
announced 30 percent relax-
ation in syllabus in exams
for students of class 10th to
12th,” the official said.
“Once the minutes of the
meeting held by the academ-
ic committee are approved
by the government, the
final decision about mode
of class 11th exams will be
announced accordingly,”
the official said.
Chairperson JKBOSE,
Veena Pandita confirmed

academic committee meet-
ing was convened a few days
ago. She however refused to
divulge further details about
