yes its true that the bond formed between two atoms of nearly same electronegative is covalent
covalent bond is formed between nonmetals

Answer:
If two combining atoms differ in their electronegativities then the atom with lower electronegativity gives electron (or electrons) while the atom with higher electronegativity accepts these electrons resulting in the formation of ionic bond. On the other hand, if two combining atoms have almost similar electronegativities then such transference of electrons cannot take place. In such a case covalent bond is formed by mutual contribution and mutual sharing of electrons.
