    India’s premier educational body, the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) is a national level board of education for both public and private schools and is controlled and managed by the Government of India. It was established in 1929 as an attempt to integrate secondary education across states in the country. In 1952 the constitution of the board was amended to give its present name- CBSE. A decade later, it was reconstituted again to make its services available to students and various educational institutions in the entire country. At present there are approximately 26,054 schools in India and 240 schools in 28 foreign countries affiliated to the CBSE. It is headquartered in New Delhi with offices in most cities of the country. English and Hindi are both considered to be the board’s official languages. All schools affiliated to CBSE follow the NCERT curriculum. CBSE used to be incharge of various competitive examinations like AIEEE Examination, AIPMT etc. But in 2017, the Union Cabinet chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, gave a go ahead for the creation of a National Testing Agency (NTA) that would serve as an autonomous body responsible for conducting competitive entrance examinations across the country. Post that, beginning 2018, various exams previously conducted by the CBSE were transferred to the NTA including National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (Undergraduate), Joint Entrance Examination – Main, National Eligibility Test, Central Universities Common Entrance Test and others.
