Guardians are not permitted across the barricade.
No meeting was allowed in front of the center.
Students are allowed to enter from 10:30 a.m., even though the exam starts at 2pm and continues until 5 pm.
The central authorities are instructed not to interact with media people.
A city-based principal said, “We are the CTIT instructors not to reveal anything about the examination.
Everything is monitored by NTA observers and they even regulate security and sanitation.” The test was relieved to be great for students.
Avik Sen from Halihahar went to Salt Lake KV 1 to take the exam.
“I am a student Halangahar Ramprasad Vidyapeth and has scored 74% in my plus-II board exam.
I prepared well for this exam and expect a good ranking,” he said.
Sangeeta Biswas from the barasat said, “The test was postponed because of Covid, but I was glad that we finally took it.
The delay gave us more time to prepare.” Because of the second covid wave, some tests were pushed back by NTA.
More than 1,000 students have sent a written petition to NTA asking that the test was pushed back to October.
But NTA has rejected it.
