The Council of Higher Secondary Education (CHSE), Odisha, has extended the deadline for Plus Two examination form submissions for 2027 from 11 November to 14 November, without a late fee. The extension applies to Arts, Science, Commerce and Vocational streams, including correspondence students.

Sambad English reports that the decision follows disruptions caused by cyclones ‘Arnab’ and ‘Murasu’, and requests from schools and students. Odishabytes.com cites severe logistical disruptions that impacted connectivity and administrative operations across several districts. All three outlets say all other previously announced dates remain unchanged.
CHSE has separately directed affiliated institutions to install functional CCTV and live-streaming systems in exam halls and strong rooms by 30 November. OdishaCCTV.in warns that non-compliant schools may lose their examination centre status.
Update, 11 November 2026: Odishabytes.com now also reports the extension and, like sambadenglish.com, names cyclones ‘Arnab’ and ‘Murasu’ specifically. It adds that the Council acted on formal representations from school principals, student bodies and parent associations. The core facts, 14 November deadline, no late fee, unchanged remaining schedule, are confirmed across all three outlets.

All three Odisha outlets, odishatv.in, sambadenglish.com and odishabytes.com, carry the CHSE extension as straight agency-style coverage, leading with the new 14 November deadline and the waiver of late fees. Odishatv.in and odishabytes.com attribute the extension broadly to recent cyclone and floods, while sambadenglish.com names the cyclones 'Arnab' and 'Murasu' specifically and adds that the Council also acted on requests from schools and students. Odishatv.in is the only outlet that reports the separate 30 November CCTV compliance directive in the same brief, foregrounding the deadline for schools to install cameras and live-streaming or risk losing exam centre status. The uniformity across three outlets on the core facts, the 14 November deadline, no late fee, unchanged remaining schedule, confirms a clear official communication. The open point is whether enough students, particularly in cyclone-hit districts, can complete enrolment within the three-day extension.
