CBSE names Mandeep K Bhandari as new chairman; appointment follows OSM controversy
The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has appointed 2001-batch IAS officer Mandeep K Bhandari as its new chairperson, with the government upgrading the post temporarily to the rank and pay of an Additional Secretary. His appointment comes months after the board faced criticism over the rollout of its On-Screen Marking (OSM) system for evaluating Class 12 answer sheets.
