A 10th Grade student in India has appealed to Home Minister Amit Sha to restore peace to Delhi so that he can take his board exams.
According to NDTV, the unnamed student says that he studies in a government senior secondary school and has his English board exam tomorrow, but cannot safely reach his exam centre.
"My exam centre is in Sarvodaya Bal Vidyalaya, Shastri Park. In our area yesterday, firing, arson and stone throwing took place. The situation of the area has gone worse and people are scared," he said.
"We are scared whether we would be able to take the exam or not. I want to appeal to Home Minister Amit Shah to restore peace in Delhi."
The minister is yet to respond.
The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has postponed Class 10 and 12 board examinations in northeast Delhi after the Central government's request. Examinations in rest of Delhi will be conducted as scheduled, the CBSE said in a press release.
