“The first paper that was scheduled to start at 9.30 a.m. has been delayed by three hours. We have notified over 1,600 examination centres across the country,” said an official from the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), the nodal agency for conducting the exam.
The paper is conducted in two halves over the day. While the first paper is for bachelor of engineering (B.E.) aspirants, the second paper (2 p.m. to 5 p.m.) is for students wanting to pursue bachelor of architecture (B.Arch).
