CBSE Extends Dates for Verification of Class 12 Marks

Considering the demands of Class 12 students, the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has extended the dates for verification of Class 12 marks. Recently, there were allegations of huge totalling errors in CBSE Class 12 exams, and few students witnessed improvement in marks after the verification. Therefore, students who did not apply for verification of marks demanded CBSE to extend the date for verification. Now, CBSE has also extended the date for obtaining photocopies of answer sheets. Now, Class 12 students who wish to apply for verification of marks and photocopy of answer sheets can fill the online application through the official website of CBSE.
