“In the event of Covid surge or any important announcement from the state/central government on Covid related cases which may coincide with the schedule, the same will be rescheduled as deemed fit,” the notification stated.
It further said that the duration of the examination/practical and the number of shifts shall be devised by MBOSE to address the social distancing norms as specified by the health department and all Covid protocols must be strictly adhered to.
