Reconsider APAAR ID mandate, facing glitches, say schools
Gurgaon: Several CBSE-affiliated schools, led by the Haryana Progressive Schools' Conference (HPSC), have requested the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) to reconsider its decision to make the APAAR ID mandatory for student registration and the submission of the List of Candidates (LOC) for the 2025–26 academic session. The appeal comes in response to CBSE's circular dated July 30, 2025, which outlines the requirement of APAAR IDs as part of the data submission process for students appearing in Class X and XII board examinations. Schools argue that the directive, though well-intentioned, is currently unfeasible due to a host of administrative and technical issues. According to CBSE's circular, the Board will conduct three rounds of examinations in 2026—main exams for Classes X and XII in Feb/March, a second examination for Class X in May, and supplementary exams for Class XII in July. Schools are required to submit accurate personal and academic data of all students, along with their APAAR IDs.

However, school heads and education bodies have raised serious concerns regarding the mandatory requirement of the APAAR ID, citing data mismatches and procedural delays. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like American Investor Warren Buffett Recommends: 5 Books For Turning Your Life Around Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo HPSC president Suresh Chander highlighted that nearly 10% of students are facing Aadhaar data mismatches involving name, date of birth, or address, which prevents successful APAAR generation. Aadhaar corrections typically require supporting municipal documents such as birth certificates, which can take over a month to procure. Once submitted, Aadhaar centres are reportedly taking 3 to 4 months to process corrections due to a heavy backlog, putting students and parents in a difficult position with tight registration timelines. Moreover, the process is complicated by the interlinked nature of multiple govt records. A small error in any document can bring the entire registration process to a halt, leaving students unable to register within CBSE's deadlines.
