Rahul Gandhi launched a scathing critique of the government's approach to education, focusing on the fees associated with the CBSE's re-evaluation process. Gandhi pointed out that students are charged significant amounts to correct marking errors, which he attributes to systemic flaws and financial motivations overshadowing educational integrity.

During a video interaction with CBSE students, including Class 12 student Vedant, Gandhi highlighted cases where students experienced uploading inaccuracies and questioned the fairness of paying for the Board's errors. He called for an overhaul of the centralized system and advocated for a more decentralized approach to prevent systemic failures.

The growing costs and procedural challenges, Gandhi argued, reflect deeper issues in the education sector, where profits are prioritized over student welfare. In light of these issues, experts from reputed institutions are now working to address these concerns by improving the digital framework of the evaluation system.
