CBSE to Provide Question Papers in Braille

CBSE board examination 2010 is special this year. For the first time, this year CBSE is going to provide Question Papers in Braille for Class X visually impaired Students.

The Board has for the first time decided to provide class X question papers of Maths and Science in Braille for Blind candidates.  Till now there was no provision of separate Braille question papers for class 10 mathematics and class 10 science.

The move is really appreciable. Already question papers without visual inputs are being provided in enlarged print to these students in the subjects of English and social science.

There are total 309 visually impaired students appearing in class 10 board exam this year. In class 12 this number is little bit lesser. There are total 249 blind students appearing in class 12 board exams.
