MPBSE Extends Registration Deadline for 2026 Second Board Exams Due to Low Applications

The Madhya Pradesh Board of Secondary Education (MPBSE) has extended the registration deadline for the 2026 second board exams to April 26, following low application numbers. These exams replace supplementary exams and allow students who failed one or two subjects or those wishing to improve their scores to reappear. Officials noted that only about 50 failed candidates had applied by the original deadline, prompting the extension to encourage wider participation.
