The Madhya Pradesh Board of Secondary Education Class 12 board examinations will begin across the state from Tuesday, with the administration putting in place extensive arrangements to ensure smooth conduct of exams and prevent unfair practices, officials said.

In the state capital, Bhopal, special monitoring mechanisms have been introduced, including the constitution of inspection teams at both block and district levels.

Speaking to ANI, Bhopal District Education Officer N K Ahirwar said that a total of 104 examination centres have been set up in the district and all students have been allotted centres accordingly.

"There are a total of 104 examination centers have been set up in our Bhopal district, and exam centres have been allotted to all the students. One inspection team has been formed at the block level and two district-level inspection teams have also been formed to ensure continuous monitoring throughout the examination," Ahirwar said.

He added that CCTV surveillance has been strengthened at private school centres. "CCTV cameras have been installed in 53 examination centers which are private schools. These centres will be monitored at the district, divisional, and Collector's office levels," he added.

The District Education Officer clarified that CCTV cameras have been installed only in those classrooms where students will be appearing for examinations. He said dedicated personnel have been assigned to monitor the live footage.

"An operator has also been assigned to each centre to monitor the cameras. Along with this, physical monitoring will also be done with the inspection team working in the field and CCTV monitoring at the district level will also be done to ensure a smooth exam," the officer added.

While I appreciate the effort to curb cheating, I hope the focus isn't just on surveillance. The stress on students is already sky-high. Are there enough measures for their mental well-being during this period? The system needs to be supportive, not just punitive.

Good move. In my time, cheating was rampant in some centres. CCTV will bring transparency. But what about the centres in remote areas? Are they equally monitored? Hope the inspection teams are doing their job properly there too.

As a parent, I feel more assured knowing there is CCTV surveillance. It protects honest students and ensures my child's hard work is not undermined by others taking shortcuts. Hope the operators monitoring the footage are vigilant.

Installing cameras only in private school centres? What about government school centres? This seems like an incomplete solution. The entire system needs to be fair. The pressure to perform is the same for all students, regardless of where they study.

All the best to my juniors appearing for the boards! 🎓 Just focus on your paper and don't worry about the cameras. If you've studied sincerely, you have nothing to fear. The real test is of your knowledge, not of avoiding surveillance.
