CHSE to hold 'special' offline exams for grade 12 in Odisha

Meanwhile, on Tuesday, September 14, the Council of Higher Secondary Education (CHSE) announced its plan to hold 'special' offline exams for grade 12 in Odisha. The CHSE has scheduled the Higher Secondary (HS) test to begin on October 1 and run through October 11. Concerned students should also be aware that the CHSE will hold HS exams on Sundays as well, for two electives and literary courses. The CHSE decided to hold this special exam after receiving complaints from more than 13,000 students who were dissatisfied with their results from the alternative evaluation scheme. Following that, on September 3, the CHSE began accepting applications for the class 12th offline tests.
