The Gujarat Secondary and Higher Secondary Education Board has released the action plan for the Class 10 and Class 12 board exams 2025 to be held from February 27. A total of 14.30 lakh students have registered for the Class 10 and Class 12 Gujarat Board exams this year.
One of the exam guidelines for board exam students is to not wear shoes and socks in the exam hall if possible, presumably to prevent cheating. This is in line with the Bihar Board mandate since 2018 onwards to prevent cheating, also followed by certain centres during Uttar Pradesh board exams. However, the BSEB students have been allowed to wear shoes and socks this year for the exams scheduled for February 1 to 5 due to the cold weather.
