Board exams scheduled for Thursday and Friday for students at Indian Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE)-affiliated schools have been postponed.
The CBSE announced this today, noting that the postponement applies to both Class 10 and 12 board examinations across the Middle East.
In an official circular issued today, the board confirmed that all examinations scheduled for Thursday, March 5, and Friday, March 6, have been deferred.

This decision affects schools affiliated with the CBSE in Bahrain, Iran, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE.
It is due to the current situation and new dates for the postponed exams will be announced at a later time.
The CBSE will review the situation and announce a decision on Thursday regarding examinations scheduled for March 7 and onwards.
The board exams were also rescheduled earlier this week in response to rising geopolitical tensions.
