CBSE rejects glitch claims; Class 12 results due in third week of May
CBSE rejects reports of system glitches in evaluating Class 12 papers, saying the On-Screen Marking process is on track and results are expected in the third week of May.
In a move to set the record straight, the Central Board of Secondary Education dismissed claims of glitches in the On-Screen Marking (OSM) system used to evaluate Class 12 answer sheets, saying the process is working perfectly and on schedule.\n\nSanyam Bhardwaj, the Controller of Examinations, told reporters that the newly introduced system has run smoothly and that media reports flagging technical issues are far from facts. The board emphasised there are no delays to the evaluation timeline.\n\nHe reaffirmed that results for Class 12 are expected in the third week of May, as had been indicated earlier, providing a clear target for students, schools, and families awaiting the outcome. The assurance comes amid social media chatter about potential glitches during the transition to OSM.\n\nThe CBSE notes that the On-Screen Marking system was introduced to speed up marking and improve accuracy, and officials say preparations are being kept on track to meet the May window. The statement is aimed at dispelling rumors and reinforcing confidence in the process.\n\nAs students focus on exams and college admissions timelines, educators and parents can look to the official timeline for planning. The board's update helps keep expectations aligned with the planned release schedule.
