‘Try again in sometime’: CBSE claims re-evaluation facility functioning properly; students flag login issues

CBSE OSM : Amid students' complaints of technical glitches on CBSE Class 12 re-evaluation facility, the board has asserted that the system is “functioning properly”. The board has further advised students facing temporary issues to "try again after some time".

According to the PTI reports, CBSE claimed that only a few login-related issues were reported earlier in the day; however, several students took to the social media platform X to report glitches, citing that the portal had “crashed” and they were unable to log in or submit applications.

'Few complained in morning,' says CBSE official

The CBSE’s examination controller Sanyam Bhardwaj told while speaking to PTI that he had received "a few phone calls" in the morning from students who were unable to log in, but no complaints were reported thereafter.

"Sometimes when candidates open the same page, an earlier saved page opens again. I asked them to restart the computer. After that, no phone calls have been received by me," he said.

"If sometimes they are not able to do it, it is not that they will continue to remain on the application for a longer period. They can wait and then submit again. From my side, it is functioning properly. Even as a dummy candidate, I submitted an application, and it was submitted correctly," Bhardwaj adds.

CBSE rejects technical glitches

Meanwhile, CBSE officials suggested that technical problems could also be related to “unstable or weak internet connections” on the users' end. He further clarified that the CAPTCHA feature had also been removed from the re-evaluation facility after several students highlighted that it was not visible.

Additionally, the official was asked whether the facility slowed down due to high traffic following the opening of the re-evaluation process. Bhardwaj dismissed the possibility and said:

"I don't think so because the National Informatics Centre (NIC) is taking care of our website, and everything is going well from their point of view also. One team is looking after this entire work at the NIC also."
