The Madhyamik Shiksha Parishad (UP Board) has directed students of class 12 (intermediate) and high school (10) going to appear for the board examinations 2016 not to put any religious signs or numbers like 'Om' and '786' on any part of the answer sheet.
According to the order, students violating the directive could be disqualified from the examination. The order has been aimed to keep religion of the examinees a secret from the examiners. This is also a positive move to put religion away from the examination process.
The board has also directed the examination superintendents to ensure that the examinees did not carry mobile phones and other electronic gadgets which could assist them in copying.
As the examinations are very close, examinees have been asked to carry original registration card of Class 9 and Class 11 issued to them at the time of taking admission to Class 10 and 12.
The board also warned students against any misconduct done with the exam officials during the examination. Any examinee found flouting the directives could be debarred from the current year examination or permanently, as per the order.
The UP Board high school and intermediate examinations 2016 is about to start from February 18 onwards, and will conclude by the end of the March. About 1.3 lakh students are going to appear for examinations this time.
