India, July 16 -- The Supreme Court on Wednesday asked the Union government and the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) to apprise it of "remedial steps" taken to address concerns surrounding the procurement and rollout of the board's on-screen marking (OSM) system, while observing that evaluation discrepancies had caused considerable "frustration" to young students.

A bench comprising Chief Justice of India Surya Kant and justices Joymalya Bagchi and V Mohana said it was not questioning CBSE's decision to adopt the digital evaluation system but was concerned about the "teething problems" that surfaced during its implementation.
