CBSE OSM discrepancies row: Developments
Following reports of discrepancies in Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE)'s On Screen Marking (OSM) evaluation system, Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan said, "I take responsibility for the discrepancies caused. These issues will be rectified and appropriate steps will be taken. I can assure students that no single query will go unanswered or unresolved."
Meanwhile, CBSE has rejected claims circulating on social media that its On Screen Marking (OSM) evaluation system was hacked. The Board said the allegations are based on misinformation and do not relate to the actual platform used for marking answer sheets. CBSE further explained that the actual evaluation system operates on a different secure URL. It stressed that this official platform has not been compromised and no security breach has been detected in the system used for marking answer scripts.
The Board added that the claims being shared online appear to be based on confusion between the testing environment and the live evaluation portal. It emphasised that the testing site is separate and not part of the operational infrastructure used for examinations.
Reassuring students and stakeholders, CBSE stated that the OSM system has been developed to improve transparency in the evaluation process. It also highlighted that proper grievance redressal mechanisms are in place to ensure fairness.
