Students suffering from Type-I diabetes can now take snacks during Class 10th and 12th board examinations conducted by the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE). <br/><br/>In a circular, the Board said a significant number of children suffer from Type-I diabetes and need insulin injections at regular intervals to keep their blood glucose levels in check. CBSE said, these children need frequent meals to avoid hypoglycemia which may otherwise affect their performance. <br/><br/>It said that such students can carry items like sugar tablets, fruits, snacks and water to the examination centre which has to be kept with invigilators. The CBSE, however, said the certificate of the student's medical condition should be forwarded by the principal of the school concerned.
