Technical woes continue for CBSE as parents struggle to apply for revaluation

Chennai: With hardly a day left to apply for revaluation, parents of CBSE Class XII students continued to face issues with the web portal on Sunday — from pages freezing to unending reloading. “The deadline is likely to be extended to another day,” a school head said. CBSE regional office said that the issues were pertaining to website traffic and that several students were able to successfully apply. The portal has been facing technical glitches, including payment issues and traffic overload, since it was launched on May 19. CBSE had roped in experts from IIT Madras to probe the issue. While the initial schedule to apply for answer sheet scans and revaluation were on May 22 and 29 respectively, the glitches pushed the deadlines to May 25 and June 1.
