The Central Board of Secondary Education's (CBSE) website crashed and became inaccessible soon after the press briefing from Education Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal 'Nishank' began. CBSE's website has crashed on several result days as well, given the high volume of traffic. The minister announced the dates for 2021 board exams for Class 10 and 12 as May 4 to June 10.
