The Rajasthan Board of Secondary Education (RBSE), based in Ajmer, has changed its exam plan for 2027.
Class 10 and Class 12 board exams will not be held in February, as was earlier planned.
The reason is upcoming Census-related activities.
The board shared this in a post on its official X account on November 14, 2026.

So why does this matter for students?
Students preparing for the 2027 board exams do not have a fixed date right now.
This affects students across Rajasthan who appear for these exams.
The revised timetable will be posted on the board's official website, rajeduboard.rajasthan.gov.in, once it is released.
It will give subject-wise dates and other important instructions.
What should students do until then?
The board advises students to continue their preparation as per their existing study plans.
They should check the official RBSE website regularly. They should also follow announcements from their schools.
