The Central Board of Secondary Education today declared results of Class X for five regions, including the national capital.

The other four regions are Allahabad, Chennai, Dehradun and Trivandrum.

The results for other regions will be announced soon, a senior official said.

Anxious students and parents had to wait for the results as the board’s website crashed half an hour before the result was scheduled to be declared due to heavy traffic.
