From blacklisting clauses to technical criteria: Class 12 student exposes Coempt Eduteck tender - The South First
A 12th-grade student, Sarthak Sidhant, alleges that the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) revised tender conditions to favor Coempt Eduteck, a company with a history of operational failures. The changes included removing disqualification provisions for past performance issues and lowering turnover requirements. Sidhant claims these alterations allowed Coempt to qualify despite its previous track record and benefited from other modifications like relaxed software ownership requirements and penalties related to delivery timelines. Rahul Gandhi has demanded an independent judicial inquiry, while KTR, former Telangana Minister, criticized the CBSE's actions and called for accountability from the Union Government.
