The Supreme Court has directed the CBSE to grant Class 6 students the same exemptions under the three-language policy already given to Classes 7 and 8. While Class 6 students must study the third language this academic year, they will not have to appear for a CBSE Board examination in that language when they reach Class 10. The Times of India, ABP Live, India TV, and Times Now all report the court overruled the Centre's position that Class 6 should not be exempted.

All four sources report the same court order with near-identical factual framing. The differences are minimal: Times of India and Times Now lead with the exemption detail, while ABP Live and India TV give more space to the government's opposing view that 99% of schools were ready. The government's resistance and the court's override are consistently reported. No source adopts an overt stance. The uniformity suggests wire copy origins. The next date for hearing the larger policy challenge will determine the scheme's mandatory timeline.
