Citing the reason that students with low attendance who had been permitted to give the Class XII board exams in 2019 had fared poorly, the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) had rolled out a Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) to ensure a minimum level of attendance, reports The Indian Express.
CBSE’s new bye-laws will disallow students who have less than 75 per cent attendance throughout the academic year to appear for their XIIth boards. A relaxation will be made for students who take part in national level sports competitions, setting a minimum of 60 per cent attendance for them.
Students seeking condonation will need to send their requests to regional offices of the CBSE latest by 7 January. The applications must also be accompanied by relevant medical documents proving the claim.

The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
