New Delhi:
Amidst speculations that Bihar board exam result will be out on May 10, an official from the board told NDTV over the phone that results will be delayed.

However, May 5 is also over and there is no sign of the board results yet. Some media outlets have speculated that Bihar Board result will be announced on may 10. However, the board official NDTV spoke to, refuted such claims and said that results are not prepared yet and hence can not be declared by May 10.
