Prime Minister Narendra Modi today extended his best wishes to students appearing in Class 10 and 12 board examinations, saying they should write their paper with a smile and lots of confidence.

Modi had also asked students who were due to appear for the board examinations to adopt a "never give-up" attitude during a recent interaction here.

"Best of luck to all my young friends appearing for the CBSE class XII and class X examinations! Write these exams with a smile and lots of confidence," he said on Twitter today.

More than 28 lakh candidates will appear for the Class 10 and 12 examinations being conducted by the Central Board of Secondary Education

A total of 16,38,428 candidates have registered for class X examination, while 11,86,306 candidates have registered for class XII examination.

The class X board examination has been reintroduced from this year after the government decided to do away with the Comprehensive and Continuous Evaluation (CCE) adopted earlier.

The exam is being conducted at 4,453 centres across India and 78 centres outside India. Similarly, for class XII, the exam will be held at 4,138 centres in India and 71 centres abroad.

Candidates suffering from diabetes are allowed to carry eatables inside the examination centres. From this year, CBSE is also allowing candidates with special needs to write their exams using laptops but their device will have to undergo an inspection by the computer teacher at the exam centre and no Internet access will be allowed.
