Union Education Minister Pralhad Joshi Reviews CBSE’s Academic & Exam Systems, Pushes For Greater Efficiency, Transparency & Student Support

Union Education Minister Pralhad Joshi convened a meeting on Monday to evaluate the academic, examination, and administrative processes of the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE). Key officials from the Department of School Education and Literacy participated in the discussion, which centered on enhancing efficiency, transparency, and support for students and teachers.

The meeting reviewed priorities aimed at strengthening CBSE's systems, addressing concerns over digital evaluation and procurement processes. Joshi emphasized the need for greater efficiency, transparency, and improved support for students and teachers during a post on X. The CBSE faced controversy recently due to its digital evaluation system, which led to the transfer of former chairman Rahul Singh and secretary Himanshu Gupta in June.

The controversy stemmed from scrutiny over the procurement process for the board's on-screen marking (OSM) system and alleged irregularities during its full-scale implementation for Class 12 assessments.
