On 24 April, CBSE had decided to do away with their controversial ‘moderation’ policy, which has been criticised for increasing marks of different students by different amounts.

However, on Tuesday evening Delhi High Court ordered the board to put their ‘no moderation’ policy on hold until 2018. The students who appeared for their board exams in 2017 will be marked under the ‘moderation’ of marks policy.
