Jairam Ramesh, a Congress leader, criticized the Indian government's decision to retain COEMPT Eduteck Pvt Ltd for scanning answer sheets during the CBSE re-evaluation process. He mocked the company’s name, linking it to governmental incompetence, while an IIT official defended COEMPT's performance.

• 01Jairam Ramesh referred to COEMPT Eduteck Pvt Ltd's name as an acronym for 'Compromised Out-of-touch Exhausted Mantri Pradhan's Trouble-making'.
• 02The CBSE has moved all data related to the On-screen marking system to its own servers for enhanced security.
• 03COEMPT has successfully scanned 40 crore pages, with only about 30,000 pages identified as problematic, equating to a 1 in 10,000 error rate.
• 04As of June 4, the CBSE received 70,433 applications for post-result grievances, including 63,119 for re-evaluation.
• 05An IIT official confirmed that COEMPT will continue to scan answer sheets despite past issues, as the problematic pages are now the focus.

The decision to retain COEMPT and the transfer of data to CBSE servers aims to enhance security and control over the re-evaluation process.
