The examination was held in two shifts. The first shift covered subjects including Civics, Mathematics, Economics, Sanskrit, and Psychology, while the second shift covered Chemistry, Geography, Hindi, and Art. The first shift was held from 9.30am to 11.30am, and the second shift was held from 2.30pm to 4.30pm.”
Kumar said that the examination was conducted at the centres designated by the Commission in an environment characterized by complete transparency, freedom from malpractice, and systematic order. Throughout the examination, all centres were continuously monitored from the AI-Integrated Control Command Room established at the Commission’s headquarters.
Under the supervision of the Commission’s Chairman, Members, Secretary, Examination Controller, and Deputy Secretary, the activities of the candidates were kept under constant observation through AI-enabled cameras installed at the examination centres.
He said, “With the objective of enhancing technical innovation and transparency, a pilot project was implemented at selected examination centres in the Lucknow district. Under this initiative, the OMR answer sheets used by the candidates were scanned directly within the examination halls immediately after the conclusion of the exam.”
The scanning process was carried out in the presence of the candidates, and measures were simultaneously ensured to securely save the scanned data. The entire process was also monitored remotely from the Commission’s AI-Integrated Control Command Room.”
Kumar expressed his gratitude to all the candidates, centre superintendents, and administrative officials, while also commending the cooperation extended by the respective district and police administrations for the successful conduct of the examination.
