NOIDA: Dear students, before you poke your friend or look back on the sly hoping to get an answer to that difficult sum, it would be a better idea to leave the question blank.The education department is leaving no stone unturned to intensify vigil at examination centres across the state. Not only will each room have two close-circuit cameras , the government has gone a step further this year to set up voice recorders . Over 20,000 students in the Class X category and 15,000 from Class XII will write their final examinations under the state board from later this week. Gautam Budh Nagar has 46 examination centres.The district inspector of schools, PK Upadhyay, said on Monday that footage from the cameras would be monitored by sector and zonal magistrates.The seating arrangement will, however, depend on the capacity of each test centre. “Some have eight rooms, others have 20 or more. At one centre, we have 32 rooms. Now, on small desks, students will be made to sit individually. If the desk is long enough, it will be shared by two students. But all rooms will be fitted with two close-circuit cameras each, one to cover the entire room and another to cover only the entrance. Additionally, there will be voice recorders,” Upadhyay said.The education department said such stringent action was being explored under the instruction of chief minister Yogi Adityanath. A video conference was held on Monday, when the chief secretary instructed all officials concerned to take proper steps to ensure copying does not take place during the exams.“There will be random checks of footage from the exam centres. Once the writing sheets are collected, the entire process of the papers being packed and loaded on to the vehicle will be recorded. If we find any gaganised cheating, FIRs will be lodged under the Gangster Act. The footage will be watched over by szonal magistrates,” DM BN Singh said.
