Three-member squad will investigate at the gate
During the high school and intermediate examinations of UP Board, candidates will be searched before entering the examination centres. For this, an internal inspection squad has been formed. Director of Secondary Education Dr. Mahendra Dev has instructed all the district school inspectors that three-member squads will be formed at the examination centers to prevent the use of unfair means (copying), maintain cleanliness and law and order.
This internal inspection squad will have three members including a female teacher. The center administrator will ensure that teachers of the subjects whose examinations are being conducted at the center are not appointed in the internal inspection squad. Internal inspection squad members with the help of the district administration will search the candidates, and male members at the centers will not search the girl students.
