According to the instructions issued by the board before the paper, “Mobile, ChatGPT and other electronic items will not be allowed to be carried in the examination hall.”

CBSE officials said that using ChatGPT would amount to using unfair means in the examination.

“Students are not allowed to carry any electronic device inside the exam centre. This includes using the device to access ChatGPT, so that unfair means are not used,” an official said.
