The CBSE re-evaluation controversy has exploded into a major political battle after Rahul Gandhi launched a sharp attack on the Modi government over alleged flaws in the Board's On-Screen Marking (OSM) system. The Congress leader questioned the fees charged for verification, re-totalling and re-evaluation, claiming students are being forced to pay for mistakes made by the system. His remarks came after several students reported answer-sheet mix-ups and issues during the re-evaluation process.
