Controversy Over CBSE Class 12 Evaluation Sparks Parental Outcry

Amid the alleged evaluation discrepancies in Class 12 CBSE results, Delhi Parents Association claims teacher shortages led to unqualified TGTs checking papers, resulting in lower student marks. Concerns rise over On-Screen Marking system flaws, prompting widespread discontent among students and parents fearing impacts on future competitive exams.

The Delhi Parents Association has voiced serious concerns over the alleged discrepancies in the evaluation of Class 12 CBSE answer sheets. Claiming that Trained Graduate Teachers (TGTs) were involved in the evaluation process due to a shortage of Post Graduate Teachers (PGTs), the DPA representative, Aparajita Gautam, suggested that TGTs might have misunderstood the marking scheme, leading to lower marks for students.

Aparajita Gautam emphasized the significance of Class 12 CBSE exams, noting that the results are crucial for students' futures, particularly for those aiming to excel in competitive exams like JEE and NEET. She highlighted the impact of flaws in the On-Screen Marking system, which left many students unable to achieve the desired results, causing significant distress for students and their families.

Furthermore, Gautam suspected that the actual number of complaints about the evaluation process was higher than CBSE's official figures. She critiqued the lack of proper training and follow-up for teachers, raising concerns about the sudden introduction of the OSM system without adequate testing. With mounting pressure on CBSE due to technical failures and discrepancies, the issue continues to draw widespread attention from concerned stakeholders.
