Earlier this week, Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma held a virtual meeting with deputy commissioners and other stakeholders to ensure the smooth conduct of the exams.

There will be one nodal officer in each of the 25 districts where examinations are going to be held and government gazetted officers will also be put into action for each examination centre as observers to ensure that the SOPs are properly and satisfactorily executed.

Moreover, one sub-inspector level police officer will be deployed in each examination centre who will be assisted by other police personnel.

The candidates along with the invigilators will be barred from carrying mobile phones or any other electronic gadgets into the examination centres.

No candidate will be allowed to re-enter the examination centre after the end of the examination of that particular shift.
