What did the CBSE Earlier Notification Say?

We hope students must have found this information helpful. As the new academic sessions are about to begin, students must be thorough with the CBSE Syllabus. The board has also revised and reduced the syllabus of Class 9 to 12 by 30% for the academic year 2020-21 due to the COVID 19 pandemic.
