The operationalisation of verification and re-evaluation portal of the Central Board of Secondary Education, for Class 12 students, faced delays on Monday. The Board had earlier decided to postpone the operationalisation of the portal from May 29 to June 1 to ensure “highest standards and protocols of evaluation.”
The portal remained inaccessible throughout the day and even till press time on Monday due to technical glitches. In the afternoon, CBSE in a post on X had stated “Dear students, Verification and re-evaluation portal will go live soon. Official announcement will follow.”
Ethical hacker Nisarga Adhikary, who has been flagging cybersecurity-related vulnerabilities on the OnMark portal, in a post on X on Monday claimed that the re-evaluation site “got taken down after he had reported an open payment info endpoint to Cert-IN.”
In a statement on May 29, CBSE had said, “In order to ensure a transparent and glitch-free process for verification and re-evaluation of answer books of students who intend to submit their applications on the Post-Result Activities portal, it has been decided that the designated portal will now be operational from 1st June 2026. This is to ensure the highest standards and protocols of evaluation.“
The CBSE’, which introduced the On Screen Marking System for the first time this year for Class 12th Board Exam , is under the scanner after students have alleged discrepancies in its implementation. Several students have reported inaccuracies in scoring mechanism while cases of a mismatch in roll numbers and scanned answer sheets also surfaced. Some students have also alleged missing pages in the scanned answer sheets.
Cybersecurity researchers have been flagging several vulnerabilities in the OnMark portal of the service provider of CBSE. The Board on Sunday acknowledged that vulnerabilities had been identified and said that they have been contained.
