CBSE to publish AIEEE answer sheets online

CBSE to publish AIEEE answer sheets online

From 2012, students appearing for AIEEE will be able to view his/her answer sheet on the official website a few days after the results are declared.

To ensure transparency in the examination system, Union ministry of human resource development has come up with an initiative of publishing answer sheets online. HRD has directed CBSE to make necessary arrangements for it.

Experts say that thousands of students reappear in the exam every year to score better marks. After assessing their answer sheets, students will be in a better position to evaluate their performance.

All India Engineering Entrance Exam (AIEEE) scheduled on April 29, 2012, will be conducted online.

This move has come after RTI was filled by Mr  Nilesh Gupta a RTI activist responsible for bringing major transformation changes in education , AIEEE has never disclosed its official answer key and kept the students in dark for so many years,
After the RTI was filled CBSE started feeling the heat and decided to be more transparent
In order to avoid embarrassment, recently the CBSE has been criticized on many occasions about how it handles the RTIs by Chief Information Commissioners.

CBSE in order to avoid the further embarrassment of CIC has decided to go ahead with move
