Supreme Court Seeks Centre's Response on CBSE OSM Evaluation Complaints
The Supreme Court, led by Chief Justice Surya Kant, has sought the Centre and CBSE's response by Monday regarding complaints about the Central Board of Secondary Education's On-Screen Marking (OSM) system for Class 12 exams. Around 1.68 lakh students applied for re-evaluation during a one-week grievance window. The Centre, represented by Solicitor General Tushar Mehta, stated grace marks are not possible and emphasized the deadline was linked to other exams. Petitioners argue the window was too short and many students remain affected. The court is considering a permanent mechanism to address such issues.
