CBSE Middle East Exam Update

No, the CBSE board exams for 2026 (Class 10 and 12) have not been cancelled overall. The exams are ongoing as per the scheduled dates in most parts of India and other regions, with Class 10 exams expected to conclude around mid-March 2026 and Class 12 in April 2026. Some postponements have occurred only in specific Middle East countries (like Bahrain, Iran, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and UAE) due to the current regional situation (related to tensions/war). For example, exams scheduled for March 2, March 5, and March 6, 2026, in those areas were postponed, with new dates to be announced later by CBSE. This is not a full cancellation or nationwide change. There have also been fake rumours and circulars about broader cancellations (especially in the Middle East), but CBSE has officially clarified that such claims are false—always check the official CBSE website (cbse.gov.in) for authentic updates. No official source confirms any complete cancellation of the 2026 board exams. Students should rely only on CBSE's official notifications and avoid misinformation.
