Since the infamous Bihar Board Intermediate incident of 2016, when the board topper failed to answer basic questions, the state board has started verifying the answer sheets of top-scoring students. This year, however, due to the shortcomings caused by the pandemic, the verification is being done through video-conferencing on WhatsApp.

Bihar Board chairman Anand Kishore has been awarded the Outstanding Educational Leader award by Jagran Josh Education Awards 2021, which was presented by the Education Minister Ramesh Pokriyal Nishank. The award was given to him for his exemplary contribution to the education system during the COVID-19 pandemic.
