The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) will help Kerala students get their education certificates back in case they might have lost them in the floods through its digital repository, said CBSE on Monday.
Several students, according to reports, have also lost their academic documents when the fury waters ravaged their households.
CBSE has 1,300 schools in Kerala affiliated to it. The students of these schools can retrieve their mark-sheets, migration certificate, and pass certificate from CBSE's digital academic repository called 'Parinam Manjusha'.
This academic repository has been integrated with DigiLocker, a government storehouse of documents.
"The CBSE will re-send login-id and password of Parinam Manjusha/DigiLocker pertaining to students of the year 2016-2018 on their mobile numbers provided with Class X or XII data," CBSE Secretary Anurag Tripathi said in a statement.
Students of 2004-2015 will have to visit DigiLocker website and link their Aadhaar to their account and retrieve their documents by entering their names, roll number and year of examination.
"In case any student finds a variation in the document, he/she may contact the CBSE Regional Office in Thiruvananthapuram immediately, giving roll number, name, class and year," the statement said.
In addition to these measures, the board has also extended the deadline for submitting school information at Online Affiliated School Information System (OASIS) for affiliated schools in Kerala, to September 30, 2018.
Meanwhile, thousands left for their once flooded homes in Kerala on Monday, still leaving 342,699 in around 1,000 shelters, as an army of volunteers continued their drive to clean houses that were submerged for days.
