The National Institute of Open Schooling (NIOS) has released a revised date sheet for the ongoing NIOS 10th and 12th board examinations 2025. This update specifically addresses the exams that were postponed in Bihar due to the Bihar Assembly Elections 2025.
Initially scheduled for November 6, 2025, the affected theory papers for both secondary (class 10) and senior secondary (class 12) students will now be conducted on November 29, December 1, and December 2, 2025.
Students who were preparing for the earlier date can now access the complete rescheduled timetable and plan their studies accordingly. The exams will be held in two shifts, with most papers scheduled from 2:30 PM to 5:30 PM.
The decision to reschedule the exams was taken to ensure a smooth and uninterrupted electoral process across the state. Holding board exams on the same day as major elections could have led to logistical challenges for both students and administrative authorities. This proactive rescheduling allows students to exercise their franchise without conflict and focus on their exams separately.
