The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) extends the deadline for students to request scanned copies of Class 12 answer books. Multiple reports say the board pushes the new cutoff to May 25 at midnight after students report difficulties accessing scanned copies via the portal. The extension follows earlier deadline changes: the CBSE had already moved the request deadline multiple times, including prior extensions that took it from May 22 to May 23, then to May 24. The latest update provides students additional time to submit their requests electronically through the CBSE portal. The extension is linked to complaints about access problems and challenges in obtaining scanned answer book copies. With the updated deadline, students who have not yet filed their scanned-answer-book requests can do so before the May 25 cutoff. The board’s decision reflects an ongoing attempt to address student concerns while keeping the submission window open for the request process.
