In a proactive move, CBSE has released a list of 30 social media handles that illegitimately use the name and logo of the board with the intent to deceive the public. The board has taken immediate action against these handles and has issued a cautionary advisory to students and their parents, urging them to remain vigilant against falling prey to baseless rumors and malpractices.
