CBSE's new affiliation system came into effect from March 1. The system has been restructured as per various recommendations for systemic reforms laid down in the new National Education Policy (NEP), the board had said.
"The board is restructuring the affiliation system and process as per recommendations of education reforms in the NEP. Although the CBSE affiliation system has been online since 2006, the restructured system will be completely digital and based on data analytics with least human intervention," CBSE Secretary Anurag Tripathi said in January, 2021.
