Why was the affiliation cancelled?

The board identified such schools through investigation and now taking major action, it has canceled the recognition of all such schools which were negligent.

However, CBSE has also taken care that the decision should not spoil the future of the students studying in these schools, hence the board has given the students here a chance to give the paper for the last time.
