He noted that this was the first time the OSM evaluation was used. Describing it as a "student-centric" process, and a globally accepted system aimed at transparency.

"We take responsibility for any issues students face and apologise for them. I assure you that anyone found intentionally responsible for these discrepancies, regardless of their position within or outside CBSE, will not be spared," Pradhan said.
On Rahul Gandhi
Urging the political parties to avoid politicising the issue, Pradhan took special note of LOP Rahul Gandhi's allegations of "massive tampering". He insisted that the CBSE has already responded and that the procurement was done in line with GOI's policies. "I repeat, if any irregularities are found, no one will be spared."
Slamming RaGa, Pradhan said, "he seems to be in a different mental state due to repeated election losses." The BJP minister noted that Gandhi has "opposed Rafale, EVMs, and Digital India," and alleged, “He seems to be against India's scientific progress.”
