The board replied that it is in the process of taking appropriate decisions on the matter. 
The Supreme Court  also asked CBSE to consider granting marks on the basis of internal assessment.

After the decision of exams to be held on July, a group of four parents approached the court.
The petition pleaded the court to direct CBSE to cancel the remaining papers and give marks to students on the basis of internal assessment. “CBSE’s notification for holding the remaining examination is discriminatory and arbitrary and that too in the month of July when as per AIIMS data, the Covid-19  pandemic would be at its peak.... As done by CBSE in its other 250 schools
abroad and various state boards, the examination scheduled to be conducted in July should be cancelled and marks allotted on the basis of internal assessment,” it said.

Wednesday was the sixth day in a rowthat the country has registered over 10,000 cases.
India’s cumulative caseload on Wednesday stood at 3,67,093.

He urged the hearing bench to order an adjournment, so that he could convey the verdict on the issue to the apex court.
The court is listed for the next hearing on Tuesday, 23 June.
