Punjab education minister Harjot Singh Bains on Wednesday accused the Union government and the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) of dropping Punjabi from the list of subjects for Class 10 board examinations, asserting that his department has issued a fresh notification stating that Punjabi will be main subject in Class 10 across all education boards in the state.
It came a day after the CBSE approved draft norms for conduct- ing the Class 10 board exams twice a year from 2026. The notification issued by CBSE included langua- ges such as Sanskrit, Urdu, Mara- thi, Gujarati, Manipuri but drops Punjabi from the list of regional languages.
The board has published the draft norms on its website and sought feedback from various stakeholders by March 9.
