Overview
- The Rajasthan Board of Secondary Education announced on Saturday that the Class 10 and Class 12 exams originally set for February 2027 will not be held in February because of Census 2027 activities.
- The board made the announcement on its official X account and has not released revised examination dates, directing students to check rajeduboard.rajasthan.gov.in for the updated timetable.
- RBSE had earlier, on November 7, published a schedule that set a February 16 start and moved daily exam start times from 8:30 am to 10:30 am, but that plan is now superseded by the postponement.
- Model question papers for both Class 10 and 12 and the board's passing criteria (minimum 33% per subject with separate theory and practical/internal assessment requirements) remain available on the RBSE website for students to use while dates are pending.
- The delay is caused by a clash for staff and venues with the Census work so students face short-term uncertainty in planning and should watch the board site for a revised timetable that past practice suggests could arrive in the weeks before exams.
