CBSE Revaluation 2026: Students Outraged Over Portal Glitches and Unclear Answer Sheets

What was intended to be a transparent result revaluation process for CBSE Class 12 students has developed into a mentally exhausting mess. Thousands of students who are seeking revaluation of their Class 12th board exam papers have reported a series of technical failures, ranging from total portal crashes to receiving unreadable scanned copies of their answer sheets.  This outrage comes at a very important time for aspirants who are already balancing the pressures of JEE, NEET, and CUET. 

Despite the Central Board of Secondary Education, CBSE, extending the application deadline for scanned copies until May 23, the distrust among the student community continues to grow.

CBSE Revaluation 2026: Technical Failures and Unreadable Scripts

Since the revaluation application window opened on May 19, 2026, the CBSE website has struggled to handle the traffic. Students have also documented numerous cases of service-unavailable errors and payment issues, where fees have been deducted from the bank accounts but have not been updated on the portal.

What draws deep concerns from parents and students is the reports regarding the quality of digital scans. Many students who have successfully accessed their answer sheets found them to be so blurred and unclear that they were unable to read and understand their own answers and handwriting. This has led to widespread doubt regarding the On-Screen Marking, OSM system, with parents questioning how evaluators could accurately grade papers that are now appearing illegible in digital format.

In response to such chaos, teachers have also voiced concerns, citing system glitches during the initial evaluation phase and a lack of proper training for digital correction. As students fight for every mark to secure college admissions, the demand for a more robust and reliable re-evaluation system remains at an all-time high.
