The growing resentment among students over CBSE’s On-Screen Marking (OSM) evaluation system has now reached the streets. On Saturday, the National Students Union of India (NSUI) protested outside the CBSE headquarters in Delhi, demanding to ensure transparency and accountability in the evaluation process. The organization says that due to alleged irregularities in the evaluation, many students have got less marks than expected, which has increased concerns about their future.

Demonstration outside CBSE headquarters regarding students’ complaints

A large number of students and NSUI workers participated in this demonstration organized outside the CBSE headquarters in Patparganj, Delhi. The protesters alleged that there are many shortcomings in the current OSM evaluation system due to which students are not getting marks as per their performance. During this, the students demanded accountability from the board and immediate action on their complaints.

Increased concern among students and parents regarding results

The students involved in the protest said that many candidates had performed well in the examination, but the results declared were not as per their expectations. This has created a situation of confusion and dissatisfaction among the students as well as the parents. The students believe that there is a need to make the evaluation process more transparent and reliable.

Demand to implement fair revaluation system

NSUI demanded that an independent and impartial inquiry be conducted into the evaluation process. The organization says that if errors have been committed at any level, then they should be identified and accountability of those responsible should be fixed. Also, an effective and transparent revaluation system should be implemented to provide justice to the students.

Protestors put forward many important demands

During the protest, students and organization representatives put forward demands like review of the OSM system, fixing accountability for evaluation errors, making the revaluation process simple and transparent and ensuring protection of students’ mental health and academic interests. They said that maintaining the faith of students in the education system is most important.

NSUI claimed to continue fighting for the interests of students

Addressing the gathering, the NSUI leadership said that behind every answer sheet are years of hard work of the students and expectations of the families. In such a situation, any kind of negligence in the evaluation process cannot be accepted. The organization said that it stands with the affected students and will continue to raise its voice till their problems are resolved.

If reforms are not made then the movement will take a national form

NSUI warned that if the demands of the students are not taken seriously and necessary reforms are not made in the evaluation process, then the movement will be carried out on a wider scale across the country. The organization says that the interests of the students cannot be compromised on any issue related to education and it is the responsibility of the concerned institutions to ensure fair evaluation.
