Delhi HC Issues Notice To Centre, CBSE On Plea Challenging Class 12 OSM Evaluation Process

The Delhi High Court has sought responses from the Centre and the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) on a petition alleging discrepancies in the evaluation of Class 12 answer sheets under the newly introduced On-Screen Marking (OSM) system. Filed by the National Students' Union of India (NSUI), the plea seeks compensatory marks for students affected by unreadable scans, missing pages, improperly scanned answer sheets, or evaluation errors. It also requests an extension of the re-evaluation window and asks that the portal remain open for another month. CBSE informed the court that student grievances are already being addressed through existing mechanisms. The matter is scheduled for further hearing on June 12.
