According to the revised schedule, the Hindi and Elementary Hindi exams for high school (class 10th) will now be held on February 18, 2026, in the first shift.

Additionally, the Sanskrit exam for intermediate has been rescheduled to March 12, 2026, in the second shift.

The board clarified that aside from these changes, all other high school and intermediate exams will be conducted as per their original dates. No other modifications have been made to the exam schedule. Students need to be aware of the new dates for these three subjects. The exams will continue until March 12.

The UP Board exams will start on February 18, 2026, and run until March 12, 2026. Exams will be conducted in two shifts: the first shift from 8:30 AM to 11:45 AM, and the second shift from 2:00 PM to 5:15 PM.
