The National Students’ Union of India (NSUI) has approached the Delhi High Court, filing a Public Interest Litigation (PIL) that alleges significant irregularities and technical failures in the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) On-Screen Marking (OSM) system, affecting class 12 students' evaluations.
This petition, submitted by NSUI President Vinod Jhakhar, requests that the Court direct the CBSE to award compensatory marks to students whose answer scripts were missing, blurred, or incorrectly evaluated. The PIL highlights widespread concerns regarding the integrity of the examination process.
