Rahul Gandhi, the Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha, addressed the ongoing issues with the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) regarding the On Screen Marking (OSM) system, which has led to numerous complaints from students about wrong marking and evaluation errors. He emphasized that the Modi government has turned the CBSE into a symbol of rigging, as complaints from over 18.5 lakh students have gone largely unaddressed.

Students have expressed their frustrations on social media, with some facing abuse from political factions rather than support. Congress leader Jairam Ramesh also criticized the Education Minister, Dharmendra Pradhan, for his delayed reaction to the crisis, questioning why these issues were not anticipated before implementing the new system.
