Common card · No. 416566

In 2026, the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) in India received public backlash following the implementation of its new On-Screen Marking (OSM) system for the Grade 12 board examinations. The OSM system involved scanning physical answer sheets of the students and evaluating them digitally. After the Class 12 results were announced on 13 May 2026, many students reported issues such as blurred scans, missing pages, mismatched answer sheets, unmarked answers, and unexpected marks. The concerns led to calls for re-evaluation and public discussion. Questions were also raised about the OSM contract awarded to Coempt Eduteck and reported security vulnerabilities in the system.
