Delay in release of CBSE answer sheet copies hinders revaluation efforts
Hubballi: The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) declared Class 10 and 12 results on May 13, allowing students to apply for photocopies of answer sheets by May 27. Only those who obtained photocopies were eligible to apply for revaluation by June 3.
However, thousands of students who applied for photocopies did not receive them, hindering their revaluation efforts. CBSE has now extended the deadline for revaluation to June 7.
Students aiming for merit seats, scholarships, or fee concessions in prestigious colleges are anxious, hoping to improve their scores. Many are constantly checking the CBSE website instead of focusing on their studies.
Supraja M, who passed Class 10 from Kendriya Vidyalaya, Hubballi, shared that CBSE said in its circular dated May 19 that June 3 was the last date to apply for verification of marks or re-evaluation or both.
"For this, it was mandatory to have a photocopy. I applied for a photocopy of my general science answer book on May 26 itself. But I did not get the answer book till June 6. When we sent an email to questioning this apathy, there was no reply at all.
Even helplines 1800118002, 7669886950 and other numbers published on the CBSE website were defunct. Later, they extended the date till June 7," she shared.
Vinayak Kamatar, a parent, said CBSE was playing hide-and-seek with students.

"If CBSE extends the date, it should do it in due course of time. It should keep its communication channels active. We had doubts about our son's mathematics paper and applied for a photocopy of the answer book by paying the prescribed fee. However, we have not received the same till June 6, when the last date to apply for re-evaluation and marks verification is June 7.
Contact numbers of CBSE Regional Office, Bengaluru are defunct, and there is no reply to email queries.
The Union education ministry should streamline the same on a priority basis," he opined.
Umapati Bandakeri, secretary of the KV Alumni Association, Hubballi, asserted that it has happened with thousands of students in the state and lakhs of students across the country. "On enquiry, schools are just suggesting contacting CBSE offices in Bengaluru or Delhi. Only a few schools are taking responsibility and writing to CBSE," he observed.
K Ramesh, Bengaluru regional officer, CBSE, neither responded to the email nor was available over the phone for a comment.
