When you have already scanned each and every answer book of all the students, why are you charging ₹500 for providing scanned copy of answer book per subject? You created a mess and now students should pay for it. @cbseindia29 @EduMinOfIndia @PMOIndia #cbseexamrow

Today, Shri @sanjayjavin, Secretary, Department of School Education & Literacy, briefed the media on the On-Screen Marking (OSM) system and the student support measures introduced for Class XII Board Examinations 2026. The briefing highlighted how the technology-enabled evaluation system is helping strengthen transparency, consistency, accuracy, and efficiency in the examination process, while ensuring that student concerns are addressed with empathy, sensitivity, and utmost care. The Ministry of Education and CBSE are continuously reviewing processes and safeguards to uphold fairness and maintain the trust of students and parents. #CBSE #BoardExams #OSM

#WATCH | Delhi: Sanjay Kumar, Secretary, Department of School Education and Literacy, says, "... We will charge a fee of Rs 100 from any student who wishes to view their answer sheets; a separate fee of Rs 100 applies if they wish to have their papers validated; and a fee of Rs 25 applies for the re-checking of the answer to any specific question. We have decided that if, during the scrutiny process, a student's marks increase or are revised upwards, we will refund the entire amount paid by them for the re-evaluation..." He also says, "Whether it is the Ministry of Education or the CBSE, the welfare and concerns of all our children are of paramount importance to us. Therefore, we want to ensure that no child feels, for any reason whatsoever, that they have received lower marks than they deserve—either based on their merit or the actual performance reflected in the answers they wrote during the examination. The provision for re-evaluation has always existed within the CBSE framework... We will ensure that the marks awarded, including the totalling of scores, are absolutely accurate... CBSE has taken a decisive step this time: if you wish to view your question paper or answer sheet, seek its verification, we have decided that the fee previously charged for such services..."

CBSE’s new on-screen marking system for Class 12 is facing criticism as students report unexpected drops in marks, especially in science subjects, raising concerns over evaluation accuracy The issue has also sparked debate over re-evaluation fees and transparency, while CBSE maintains the system is fair and objective @_kritika_tiwari & @SagarikaMitra26 with more details.

#WATCH | Delhi: Sanjay Kumar, Secretary, Department of School Education and Literacy, says, "As you are aware, the Class 12 results recently declared by the CBSE were marked using an On-Screen Marking (OSM) system this time. Following this, certain concerns have been raised—specifically, students feel that the overall pass percentage has declined. Indeed, the pass percentage has dropped by 3 per cent compared to the previous year, falling from 88 per cent to 85 per cent. Some students feel that they should have received higher marks than those actually awarded to them... I would like to emphasise that On-Screen Marking is neither a novel concept nor is this the first time it has been implemented. The CBSE first initiated the OSM system in 2014; however, at that time, due to technical infrastructure limitations, it was deemed unfeasible to continue the process immediately. We have successfully reintroduced it this year..."

Message to Students It appears from social media posts that many students of class XII Board are anxious about their results/marks and are attributing it to change of assessment scheme i.e. On-Screen Marking (OSM) mechanism re-introduced this year. The Board is extremely sensitive to their concerns and is alive to addressing it accordingly. The CBSE reiterates that student well-being is of paramount importance and, therefore, has attempted to address all possible issues which could arise. The key benefits of OSM are uniformity in evaluation with adherence to the marking scheme prepared by experienced CBSE teachers. The marking scheme also contains alternative methods of answering so that children who answer deploying alternative methods are also graded. If any student feels dissatisfied with the result, there are clear and transparent avenues available, including verification of marks, access to evaluated answer books, and re-evaluation. For those feeling anxious or uncertain, tele-counselling support (1800-11-8004) is also available. They may also reach out through the email resultcbse2026@gmail.com. We would encourage students and parents to directly use these official channels to seek clarity and support, for any unanswered doubts. Every concern deserves attention, and no student is alone in this process. @EduMinOfIndia @dpradhanbjp @PIB_India @AkashvaniAIR @DDNewslive @PTI_News @sanjayjavin @PIB_Edu @airnewsalerts

CBSE’s Commitment to Fair, Transparent and Equitable Evaluation It has been observed that following the declaration of the CBSE Class XII results, several posts have appeared on social media regarding the assessment under the On-Screen Marking (OSM) system, particularly in relation to marks obtained by students in Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Mathematics. The OSM system was introduced to enhance transparency, fairness, and consistency in the evaluation process by ensuring stepwise marking, which has long been a salient feature of the Board’s evaluation framework. The system aims to promote uniformity and objectivity in the assessment of answer scripts across subjects and across regions. Another key feature of the Board’s evaluation system has been the opportunity afforded for re-evaluation provided to students who may be dissatisfied with their results. This reflects the Board’s commitment to transparency, fairness, and equity. Accordingly, this opportunity will be made available this year as well. Students may apply for copies of their evaluated answer books, and in case any discrepancy is observed by them, they may request for corrective action. These processes are required to be undertaken through the mechanism prescribed by the Board. The Board once again reiterates its unwavering commitment to maintaining a fair, just, consistent and equitable assessment system, ensuring that they are in accordance with the transparent and robust evaluation practices adopted by the Board. @EduMinOfIndia @dpradhanbjp @sanjayjavin @PIB_India @PIB_Edu @DDNewslive @AkashvaniAIR @airnewsalerts @PTI_News
