Jaipur: Amidst unprecedented security measures, CBSE conducted the re-examination of the All India Pre Medical Test (AIPMT) across Jaipur.
The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has come up with tight security measures to prevent use of unfair means in the re-test after the SC scrapped the previously held exam on May 3.
A total of 49,195 aspirants will appear for the re-test in Jaipur.
Students were nervous about the re-test as they were standing in the queues holding their admit card in their hands and following the strict dress code prescribed by the CBSE.
"We never had the time for proper revision and it is extremely difficult to maintain that level of enthusiasm and energy for a re-exam that is scheduled two months later," said Ashutosh Bhargav, a student from Kota.
The entry of students inside the centres was checked and recorded on camera after which they were frisked by school guards and CBSE officials both physically as well as with metal detectors.
The education board also barred the students from carrying mobile phones, calculator, watch, geometry box, pencil box, handbag, handkerchiefs, scarves and any extra clothing. Students were requested to come in slippers and loose clothing. Even carrying pens was not allowed.
LED torches were also used to examine their mouths, ears and hair for any hidden notes or electronic devices. Many students were asked to get rid of amulets, sacred threads and lockets from their body. Some students who had come in full-sleeve shirts were asked to tear them off. Many students and parents were frightened by the excessive security.
Some parents said that intensive security will not change the way entrance examinations are held across the country.
