A tie-up between Google and CBSE
"We are collaborating with Google for the smooth dissemination of results through an easy and secure platform," said Rama Sharma, Senior Public Relations Officer at CBSE.
The statement further said that Google had worked closely with CBSE to "ensure that the data is handled securely and used solely for the purpose of showing the results on Google, and the feature will remain live only for the duration of time".
Google Search Product Manager Shilpa Agrawal said “with over 260 million students enrolled in more than 1.5 million schools across India, Google believes having reliable, seamless, and safe access to education-related information is crucial”.

The tie-up will help the students immensely as they will be able to check their exam score directly from the smart phones. The functionality is obviously available from the desktop as well. Besides this, students will also be able to locate the important information about other exams such as GATE, SSC CGL, CAT, and others.
