Underlining the key points of the National Curriculum Framework ahead of the full-fledged implementation of the NEP 2020, during a three-day National Workshop in Odisha’s Bhubaneswar on Tuesday, Saklani said that the board examinations for class 10 and class 12 students under the new National Education Policy (NEP),will continue as it is. There will be no explicit alteration in both of the pivotal exams now, as the NEP 2020 has no such provision on it.
