旁遮普邦强制将旁遮普语作为必修的学校科目，凌驾于 CBSE 的考试政策之上。 Punjab mandates Punjabi as a mandatory school subject, overriding CBSE's exam policy.

旁遮普邦政府已将旁遮普语定为全州所有学校的必修课,无论其董事会隶属何方,原因是担心旁遮普语被排除在中央中等教育委员会(CBSE)的考试政策草案之外。 The Punjab government has made Punjabi a mandatory subject in all schools across the state, irrespective of their board affiliation, due to concerns over its exclusion from the Central Board of Secondary Education's (CBSE) draft exam policy. CBSE 已澄清说，旁遮普语将继续在即将到来的两年一度的董事会考试中提供。 The CBSE has clarified that Punjabi will continue to be offered in the upcoming biannual board exams. 尽管如此,旁遮普邦政府坚持旁遮普的重要性,并声明,没有旁遮普语作为主要科目的教育证书将被视为无效。 Despite this, the Punjab government insists on Punjabi's importance and has stated that education certificates without Punjabi as a main subject will be considered invalid.
