Rajasthan board postpones Class 10 and 12 exams scheduled for February 2027

The Rajasthan Board of Secondary Education has changed the schedule due to upcoming Census activities.

The Rajasthan Board of Secondary Education (RBSE), Ajmer, has announced that the Class 10 and Class 12 board examinations for 2027 will not be held in February as originally planned. According to The Times of India, the decision was made because of the upcoming Census.

The board shared this update through a post on its official X account on November 14. While the previous schedule stated that exams would begin on February 16, 2027, the RBSE has not yet provided the new dates.

Under the earlier plan announced on November 7, the board had also moved the examination start time from 8:30 am to 10:30 am. Students will need to monitor the official website, rajeduboard.rajasthan.gov.in, to find the new timetable once it is published.

The RBSE has already made model question papers available for students to download. These practice papers, which are based on previous years' exams and expected questions, are intended to help students understand the marking scheme and exam patterns.

To pass these board examinations, students are required to obtain at least 33 per cent marks in every subject. They must also pass the practical or internal assessment and the theory components separately.
