Security beefed up at exam centres
KARACHI, May 31(Dawn): Sindh Chief Secretary Shakil Durrani, taking note of
reported cheating and use of unfair means during the ongoing exams of various
regional boards, decided to beef up the vigilance measures.
Holding a
meeting on Wednesday, the chief secretary asked the officials concerned to
ensure that the entire process from transportation of papers, their distribution
and conduct of exams go smooth without any interference from any quarter or
malpractices.
He also asked DCOs to give priority to the ongoing exams
and take all possible steps to curb the menace of cheating. He said in addition
to random inspections, action plans should be chalked out, coordination with
examination boards regarding vigilance duties must be ensured in this
respect.
The chief secretary made it clear that he did not wish to see a
superficial checking by the district administrations but a supervision that was
well-planned, without interfering in the arrangements put in place by the
educational boards. He said the administrations must simply ensure that a
well-covered supervision had been put in place and if needed was reinforced
through the deployment of security at strategic places/ examination
centres.
Mr Durrani also asked for taking concrete action as per law in
cases of cheating such as suspending papers of the candidates involved in use of
unfair means. All the DCOs were asked to send a weekly report showing the
deployment of supervisory staff and action taken to the chief secretary
office.
