CBSE revaluation row: Delhi HC issues notice to board, Centre on OSM discrepancy plea NEW DELHI: The Delhi high court on Monday issued notice to the Centre and the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), seeking their response to a plea alleging discrepancies in the board's On-Screen Marking (OSM) system used during the post-result verification and re-evaluation process. The development comes amid an ongoing controversy over CBSE's digital evaluation system, after several Class 12 students claimed that scanned copies of their answer sheets uploaded by the board did not match their handwriting, raising concerns about possible mismatches and marking irregularities. The plea was filed by the National Students' Union of India (NSUI), which sought directions to CBSE to award compensatory marks in cases where OSM copies were unreadable, improperly marked or contained discrepancies. It also requested that the board keep the re-evaluation portal open for another month. During the hearing, counsel appearing for CBSE told the court that the board was already addressing students' grievances and that affected candidates could approach CBSE directly with their concerns. After hearing the matter, the high court issued notices to the Centre and CBSE and listed the case for further hearing on June 12. Meanwhile, CBSE defended its post-result services process and said the re-evaluation system functioned smoothly during the notified application period. In a post on X, the board said: "The Application Window for Verification and Re-evaluation remained fully functional throughout the notified period from 2 June 2026 to 7 June 2026 under the supervision and management of government technical agencies and teams from the IITs." CBSE said more than 1.6 lakh candidates successfully submitted requests covering over 3.8 lakh answer books during the application period.

The Bombay Bar Association on Monday issued a resolution condemning repeated threats allegedly made to a retired Bombay High Court judge and his family in India and the United Kingdom over his 2024 verdict in a case related to the Dawoodi Bohra succession row, and called for strict action against the perpetrators. In April 2024, Justice Gautam Patel had upheld the position of Syedna Mufaddal Saifuddin as the 53rd Dai al-Mutlaq (leader) of the Dawoodi Bohra community, while noting that he had a valid appointment. People close to Justice Patel and his family said they have been receiving multiple threats over the past ten months, with the most recent one received on June 5 by his daughter in London. The letters allegedly demanded that Justice Patel record and release a video on YouTube stating that he had delivered the verdict in the Syedna case “under duress and coercion”. When contacted, Justice Patel refused to comment on the police investigation. However, the Bombay Bar Association issued a resolution condemning the threats and called for strict action against the perpetrators. The association expressed solidarity with Justice Patel and his family and urged authorities to conduct a thorough investigation to identify and arrest those responsible.
