The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) encountered technical difficulties with its Class 12 re-evaluation portal on May 21, 2026. Students attempting to apply for re-evaluation of their answer sheets reported being unable to access the website, which displayed a message stating that the site was under maintenance.
Students Express Frustration Over Portal Outage
Several students took to social media platforms to express their frustration over the unexpected downtime. Many noted that the deadline for submitting re-evaluation applications was approaching, and the glitch could potentially hinder their chances of getting their papers reassessed. The CBSE has not yet issued an official statement regarding the duration of the maintenance or any extension of the deadline.
Technical Glitches Not New for CBSE Online Services
This is not the first time that CBSE's online services have faced technical issues. In the past, students have experienced similar problems during the submission of examination forms and result viewing. The board has been working to improve its digital infrastructure, but occasional glitches continue to disrupt services.
Students are advised to keep checking the official CBSE website for updates and to complete their re-evaluation applications as soon as the portal becomes functional. In the meantime, they can also contact their respective schools for guidance on the application process.
