Amid growing complaints over glitches and discrepancies in the CBSE re-evaluation process, some Class 12 students have alleged that the scanned copies of their answer sheets uploaded by the board did not match their handwriting, raising concerns over possible answer-sheet mismatch in the On-Screen Marking (OSM) system. After a social media uproar, the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) went into damage control mode and began responding individually to affected students, providing necessary clarifications and corrective action. The CBSE has taken up on "top priority" the cases related to alleged mismatched answer sheets and other concerns faced by students in the re-evaluation process, a source in the board said. The assurances came after a social media post of a Delhi-based Class 12 student, Vedant, went viral in which he alleged that the Physics answer sheet uploaded by the CBSE under the re-evaluation process was not his.
