In a major relief for lakhs of students appearing for the SSC and HSC examinations of the Maharashtra State Board of Secondary and Higher Secondary Education (MSBSHSE), this year additional 10 minutes will now be given at the end of the exam.

A circular issued by Anuradha Oak, secretary, MSBSHSE, stated, “In 2022, there were some instances of cheating and a case of a question paper going viral on social media before the actual paper could start so the practice of distributing the paper 10 minutes before the scheduled time has been discontinued from this year. But for the benefit of students, it has been decided that these 10 minutes will now be given at the end of the exam as scheduled.”
