“As per reports, the third wave is imminent and we do not possess required facilities and infrastructure to deal with it. But school authorities are compelling us to send our children for offline exams. I will not send my son at any cost,” said the father of a local student.

The timing for Classes VI, VII, IX and XI students will be from noon to 2 pm, and that for Classes VIII and X will be from 9 to 10 am (11 am for some papers).
