Overview
- CBSE pushed the last date to apply for scanned Class 12 answer books to May 24 after repeated user reports of login failures, servers crashing and payment transactions not updating.
- Students posted screenshots showing blurred or partially missing scanned pages that made handwriting unreadable and raised fresh questions about the new On‑Screen Marking (OSM) digital evaluation system.
- Multiple users shared images of erratic fee displays on the portal, with amounts changing wildly between tiny values and large sums, prompting fears of glitches or tampering and warnings from CBSE against repeated payments.
- The board said the portal is now fully functional, lowered fees for scanned copies and rechecks, promised refunds when marks rise, and assured that subject experts will examine all genuine issues so no student is disadvantaged.
- The episode began when the scanned‑copy window opened on May 19, escalated into widespread social‑media complaints over May 19–22, and could erode trust in OSM unless CBSE completes technical fixes and transparent expert reviews.
