CBSE class 10th student suffering from cancer seeks scribe to write exams, board allegedly denies

The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has allegedly denied permission to a child suffering from cancer a scribe who can write the exam for him. The family of the child has written to the CBSE requesting permission for a scribe to assist him in the writing as he will not be able to sit for a long time. They also sought permission from the board to let him access his medicines and food items in the exam hall stating that he is fit to write the exams. The child is suffering from acute lymphoblastic leukemia and is undergoing chemotherapy at Manipal Hospital in Bengaluru.
