CBSE Appoints IAS Officer Mandeep K Bhandari as New Chairman

The Central Board of Secondary Education has named Mandeep K Bhandari, a 2001-batch IAS officer, as its new chairman. The appointment comes in the wake of controversy surrounding CBSE's On-Screen Marking system used for Class 12 evaluations. Bhandari brings significant administrative experience from Jammu and Kashmir as well as the central government. His appointment is seen as a leadership reset for the board as it gears up for its upcoming examination cycle.
