He said the ongoing 'Corona curfew', which was to end on June 7, has now been extended till 6 am on June 14.
On cancelling the 10+2 board exams, he said the HP Board of School Education would devise a formula for calculating the awards for students keeping in view the formula being devised by the CBSE.
