NEW DELHI: The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) on Wednesday claimed that the reduction in syllabus announced by the board is being interpreted “differently” and the move is only a one-time measure for the 2020-21 academic session in view of the COVID-19 situation.
The clarification by the board came amid a row over certain chapters being dropped from the curriculum.
“The reduction of syllabus from classes 9 to 12 has been interpreted differently. Contrary to some of the impressions being created, it is clarified that the rationalization of syllabus up to 30 per cent has been undertaken for nearly 190 subjects for the academic session 2020-21 as a one-time measure only,” CBSE Secretary Anurag Tripathi said.
