The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has issued a warning regarding the misrepresentation of QR codes found in its examination question papers. The board clarified that these QR codes are designed solely for internal authentication and tracking purposes, not for accessing external internet links. This statement comes in response to misleading claims made by Bollywood socialite Orhan Awatramani, known as Orry, who suggested that scanning a QR code on the Class 12 History exam paper redirected students to a webpage about him. CBSE has categorically dismissed these assertions, stating that any unrelated search results that appear when users scan the QR codes are algorithm-driven and not connected to the examination process. The board urged stakeholders to disregard false information that could tarnish its image and emphasized the need for maintaining examination integrity.
