NIOS 12th board exams 2021 will most probably be cancelled like the CBSE class 12 board exams 2021 as the Government of India has placed the well being of students at the forefront. Also, a source in the knowledge of the matter told Dataquest that authorities were keeping a close watch on the Indian Government’s decision with regard to the conduct of CBSE class 12 board exams 2021.

“NIOS 12th board exams 2021 may be cancelled after this development. The same thing had happened last year as well. First, the CBSE board exams were cancelled, and then the NIOS exams got cancelled. Nobody wants to risk the safety of students in the pandemic. But all students must wait for the final decision on this matter, which is expected by 20 June,” said the source.

After the CBSE class 12 board exams 2021, several students have been requesting the National Institute of Open Schooling to cancel NIOS 12th Board Exams 2021. Students have been requesting authorities to cancel examinations, and assess students on the basis of Tutor Marked Assignments (TMAs). “Great decision for the safety of the students. Request NIOS to also follow,” says a student like several others on Twitter.

However, there is no official decision from the board yet on the matter. NIOS recently announced that the results of the secondary examination of June 2021 will be compiled and declared soon on the basis of assessment criteria. The board while announcing its decision to cancel exams for students of class 10, and postpone it for students of 12th standard said that the situation will be reviewed on 20 June and a decision with regard to conducting NIOS 12th board exams 2021 will be taken after that. Furthermore, a plea has been filed in the Supreme Court seeking cancellation of the class 12 board exam for students in the National Institute of Open Schooling (NIOS).
