In a stern warning, the Chairman made it clear that mobile phones and any kind of electronic devices are strictly prohibited inside examination centers. “Any such device found will be immediately confiscated,” he said.
To curb cheating and the illegal distribution of papers, photocopy shops around examination centers will remain closed during exam hours.
Additionally, the board will operate a dedicated reporting cell at its office to monitor the situation and ensure the smooth conduct of the exams.
Board officers will be responsible for securely distributing the sealed exam papers to the designated centers.
The Chairman urged students to follow all instructions, avoid bringing restricted items, and focus on giving their best in the exams.
