In response to technical difficulties faced by the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) in its post-result services portal, a four-member expert team from IIT Kanpur and IIT Madras has been formed. This initiative follows directives from Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan and aims to conduct a comprehensive technical audit to pinpoint the causes of disruptions, which may include software flaws, system overload, or potential cyberattacks. The team will analyze various aspects of the portal, including payment-related issues, login failures, and server performance. IIT Kanpur's director, Manindra Agrawal, emphasized that the audit will identify weaknesses in the system and propose corrective measures. Complaints from students and parents regarding glitches in the re-evaluation process have prompted this intervention, particularly after the announcement of the Class 12 results on May 13, which saw a decline in the overall pass percentage to 85.20%, the lowest since 2019. This year also marked the first full-scale implementation of CBSE's On-Screen Marking (OSM) system, which faced challenges during its rollout.
