Coempt Eduteck, the company handling the CBSE On-Screen Marking (OSM) process, on Thursday issued a clarification over the controversy surrounding answer sheet scanning and evaluation issues. The Hyderabad-based edtech firm said the scanners used in the process were standard industry-grade machines and denied claims that poor-quality hardware affected the system.
The company said its equipment undergoes regular upgrades and that its records are available for inspection by government authorities. Coempt’s clarification came after concerns were raised over alleged irregularities and technical vulnerabilities in the evaluation process of Class 12 answer sheets.
