The board exam in soft zone areas for Class 10 begin on March 9, Class 11 on March 6 and Class 12 on Mach 4, 2023.

in hard zone areas -- indicating parts of the Kashmir valley where the temperatures are lower -- the board exams for Class 10 will start on April 11, Class 11 on April 10 and Slass 12 on April 8, 2023.

Over 63,500 students appeared for the matriculation examination in Kashmir.
