We like #OnlineExamsfor9thand11th studied online for the whole session, it's quite of an anxiety to prepare for the offline exams. Our parents are not willing to send us to school. They simply do not wish to risk our health. A humble request to conduct online exams.@DrRPNishank pic.twitter.com/GB1p8xt5vq
