Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan has lashed out at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, calling him 'frustrated' after the latter alleged tampering in the CBSE's On-Screen Marking (OSM) system.

Gandhi claimed that the CBSE failed to answer questions raised over alleged irregularities in the evaluation process, and accused the board of awarding a contract to a company with a questionable past.

However, the CBSE has denied any wrongdoing, saying the allegations are 'erroneous, misleading and not based on facts.'

Pradhan also took a swipe at Gandhi, saying he was 'frustrated' after suffering continuous electoral defeats and was raising issues that have no basis.
