There is very good chance Rajesh exports is front for money laundering by big fish politicians and babus. Otherwise faking $158B worth of revenue/invoice doesn’t make sense.

That’s why the owners would go Scot free. At worst they would make someone take the fall and close it.

@dks_230 @poojaofficial5 Impossible to read such minute fineprints even for someone aware also forget about a layman.

@poojaofficial5 @Amit2v Had a similar experience few days back. One of our institute AC of Lloyd company, where compresser was faulty and we paid Rs 3500 for gas and had to wait for almost 40 days in the process of replacement.

Meet Ashritha Reddy, who completed her https://t.co/YSvOF5fxhn in 2022 in the ECE branch from a Tier-3 engineering college. A farmer's daughter from Telangana, she has secured a job at NVIDIA with a package of ₹52 lakhs per annum.

Born and raised in a small village in Telangana, Ashritha grew up in a family where farming was the only source of income. Her parents had no formal education and worked tirelessly to support the family.

Instead of being defined by her circumstances, Ashritha used them as motivation to aim higher. After completing her https://t.co/YSvOF5fxhn in ECE, she decided to prepare for the GATE exam which opens doors to masters in top engineering institutes

In her first attempt, she secured an All India Rank of 3,000 in GATE. In her second attempt the following year, she achieved an outstanding AIR 36 at the national level. She then joined IISc Bengaluru to pursue her https://t.co/Qf7c89gCIV.

Now, she has been selected by NVIDIA with a salary package of ₹52 lakh per annum.

On being asked whether IIT is considering relaxing or removing the 75% eligibility criterion for JEE admissions this year, as a one-time measure amid the CBSE marks row

IIT Roorkee, in a statement to ANI, says “No relaxing in marks as candidates from 36 different boards are participating. We published this criterion almost in December and last year there were candidates lost IIT/NIT seats mainly due to percentages. Hence, lowering is not possible; however, we are in close touch with CBSE and will try to resolve this for all those affected candidates on priority.”

IIMs are another lot with an opaque and random admission criteria which changes yr to yr campus to campus

ISB has saved many

[LearningPoint (24x7 Chatterboxes) @learning_pt]

much bigger issue is who controls the school esp high school

generally in the hands of principals or vice-principals who often have some BA-MA degrees and understand zilch about the needs of students in science or commerce streams, who then depend on coaching/ extra-classes

[LearningPoint (24x7 Chatterboxes) @learning_pt]

the IEOR program @ iitb looks remarkably good for someone interested in applied/industrial mathematics, statistics and basic CS/ML

wonder if class 12 students even understand these programs

it's way more popular than mech/chem for a reason

[LearningPoint (24x7 Chatterboxes) @learning_pt]

except for elec courses

not one of the mainstream engineering courses @ IIT is in the 10 popular programs

CS
Math/MnC
Data/Statistics
AI
EE-EC and related
Industrial Engg/op research
Eng phy
Econ

Mech dept @ IITD had to open some Computational Mech BTech to remain relevant

[LearningPoint (24x7 Chatterboxes) @learning_pt]

on a side note

imagine what a travesty it is in the name of "social justice" when a kid from such a school clears the exam on a quota :-)

This photo would attract more talent to our army than all campaigns. I believe no action should be taken against the officer. Infact this is the kind of thing we should officially do to attract current generation into defence.

[EquateAll @Equateall]

@learning_pt No one complained when every big name CBSE school was getting 100% result, and most of them in top 90+ percentage marks. The internal evaluation marks were always a farce.

We wanted him to become a former officer.
Instead, he became a farmer officer.

BIG ACTION BY MODI GOVERNMENT
CBSE Chairman and Secretary transferred over the CBSE evaluation failure.
Inquiry committee constituted to probe the procurement of On-Screen Marking (OSM) services by CBSE.

[LearningPoint (24x7 Chatterboxes) @learning_pt]

Correct

This is exactly the kind of issue which must be politicised

In fact it is good that the importance of integrity and fairness is blaring through a loudspeaker, even if it's driven by vested interests

[Siddharth Jain @yourssid]

That's very practical indeed. Seen lot of burnt out cases which would have done well if not aimed specifically only for advanced

[LearningPoint (24x7 Chatterboxes) @learning_pt]

Actually just doing well in jee mains opens up a ton of doors

Folk can enjoy their 11th 12th and do just that as well

Will take care of BITSAT too

[LearningPoint (24x7 Chatterboxes) @learning_pt]

Kab se keh rahe hai

Exams must have strong filters to make sure the numbers are not more than 5-10x the seats

The vast majority of the folk fare dismally & are non serious candidates

the moment you allow super large numbers all sorts of shady/incompetent folk get involved

CBSE Class 12 2026: What likely went wrong?

Students who appeared: 17.69 lakh
Students who applied for verification or scanned answer sheets: 4+ lakh
with 11.3 lakh answer sheet requests.
Answer sheets rescanned due to image-quality issues: 68,000
Answer sheets evaluated manually due to scanning problems: 13,000+
Confirmed cases of students receiving someone else’s scanned answer book: 20

The numbers suggest the challenge was not just isolated errors, but the rollout itself.

CBSE appears to have simultaneously introduced on-screen evaluation, stricter marking standards, and a far more accessible re-evaluation process. Any one of these changes would have increased scrutiny. But implementing all of them together created the conditions for a backlash.

While 20 confirmed answer-sheet mix-ups are statistically tiny relative to 17.69 lakh candidates, they are arguably the most serious category of error because they undermine confidence in the integrity of the process itself.

The lesson is not that digitization is a mistake. In fact, direct digital access to answer scripts through DigiLocker could ultimately make the system more transparent and efficient. But such transformations are usually safer when rolled out in stages, extensively tested, and stress-tested before being scaled nationwide.

Hopefully, the 2027 cycle learns from this year’s experience and delivers the benefits of digital evaluation without the controversy that accompanied this transition

VIT BITSAT are one shot simple exams..

JEE-Adv allows only X% from Y caste group to even write the exam instead of a uniform cutoff from the JEE-Main stage.
