New Delhi: The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) is expected to issue admit cards for the Class 10 and Class 12 board examinations by next week, ahead of the start of the 2026 board exams. Once released, students will be able to access their admit cards through the board’s official website using their login credentials.
Previous year, CBSE issued admit cards for Classes 10 and 12 on February 3. Based on this timeframe, admit cards for the 2026 exams are expected to be available by February 10. According to NDTV, the board has already released the admit cards for private candidates on January 19 of this year.
CBSE will conduct the board examinations for the academic session 2025-26 starting February 17. Both Class 10 and Class 12 exams will commence on the same day. While the examination portal has been activated, the admit cards for regular students are yet to be issued.
Once available, the admit cards, can be downloaded from the official CBSE website. Students must log in using their roll number or other credentials given by their institution. The document will carry essential information including the student’s name, roll number, school and centre details, photograph, subjects along with their codes, examination dates, date of birth and the admit card identification number.

New Delhi: The All India Muslim Personal Law Board (AIMPLB) has criticised Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma for his recent remarks directed at Bengali-speaking Muslims, commonly known as Miyas, describing the comments as unconstitutional, divisive and a threat to social harmony. The board has urged the Supreme Court to take suo motu cognisance of the matter and appealed to President Droupadi Murmu to consider appropriate constitutional action.
In a statement issued on Friday, AIMPLB spokesperson Dr SQR Ilyas said the remarks reflected a disturbing shift in public discourse, where hate speech against Muslims is no longer confined to fringe elements but is being articulated by individuals occupying high constitutional positions, as reported by The Observer Post. He said statements made by those sworn to uphold the Constitution undermine its core values and embolden discrimination.
The board’s response followed comments reportedly made by Sarma at a government event in Assam, where he referred to “Bangladeshi Miyas” and claimed that BJP workers had submitted more than five lakh objections during the ongoing Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls, targeting people suspected to be foreigners. According to the AIMPLB, such remarks legitimise the targeting of a particular religious and linguistic community through administrative and electoral processes.
Dr Ilyas said the statements amounted to an open encouragement to question the citizenship of Muslims and expose them to social and economic exclusion. He argued that such rhetoric violates constitutional guarantees of equality, non-discrimination and the right to life with dignity under Articles 14, 15 and 21.
The AIMPLB also expressed concern over the role of constitutional institutions, warning that public confidence in free and fair elections would erode if bodies like the Election Commission fail to act independently. The board said a chief minister’s call to use electoral mechanisms against a religious group represents a serious breach of constitutional responsibility.
Pointing to similar remarks made by political leaders in other states in the past, the board said the episode reflects a broader pattern of normalising hate speech against minorities. It described the situation as a critical moment for India’s constitutional framework and called upon secular political parties, civil society organisations and citizens to speak out.
The AIMPLB also appealed to Muslims in Assam to remain calm and avoid provocation. The statement further urged them to respond through lawful and constitutional means.
