The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has announced an extension for students applying for scanned copies of their evaluated Class 12 answer books, moving the deadline from May 22 to May 23, 2026. This decision was made in response to reports of students struggling to access the application portal due to heavy online traffic coinciding with the ongoing Common University Entrance Test (CUET). While many students reported issues such as slow loading times and login difficulties, CBSE officials, including Examination Controller Sanyam Bhardwaj, stated that only a few minor issues were noted. Bhardwaj reassured students that the system was functioning correctly and advised those facing temporary access problems to wait and try again later. Additionally, the board has removed the CAPTCHA feature from the portal after students indicated that it was not visible during login attempts. Despite the complaints, CBSE maintains that the portal has not crashed and that the National Informatics Centre has not flagged any significant technical issues.
