India's Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has postponed exams scheduled for Class 12 students from Thursday, March 12, in the UAE and the Middle East till Monday, March 16.
In an official statement, the board said the exams will not be held in Bahrain, Iran, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE due to the "prevailing uncertainties".
It also noted that it will review the situation on Saturday, March 14, to determine the next course of action.
The board advised students to follow up with their schools for any updates and information on the examinations.
Last week, the board cancelled all Class 10 examinations for the UAE and Middle East region, adding that the mode of result declaration will be notified separately.
