THE STATE Education Department has drawn up an ambitious scheme to ensure copying-free UP Board’s High School and Intermediate examinations . The scheme would be implemented with the active support of district administration. The State Government has already given its nod to the scheme.
As per the scheme, special security arrangements would be made at all the sensitive examination centres in the districts. Magistrates would be deployed outside these centres to check activities of unscrupulous persons venturing to assist examinees inside the classroom in solving the question papers.
According to District Inspector of Schools S P Diwedi, about 50 centres have been identified as the sensitive in the twin districts of Kanpur City and Kanpur Dehat.
Special magistrates would be posted at all these centres to check the copying. In case of shortage of regular magistrate, Class II officers would be invested with the powers of Class I magistrates and they would be given the charge of these centres.
Though the magistrates would be at these centres through out the examinations but on the occasion of important papers like Science , Mathematics and English, these magistrates would be deployed for the whole day to ward of any untoward incident, District Inspector of Schools said.
Diwedi said the two districts would be divided into 10 to 12 sectors and each sector would be under the charge of a magistrate. Sector magistrates would be responsible for checking of the examinees , answer books and question papers. At the time of delivery of the question papers to the centre superintendents, adequate police force would be deployed.This time, teachers of basic schools would not be made invigilators but in case of any emergency, they could be asked to do invigilation duty.

In case, five or more than five examinees were caught copying in one classroom, it would be deemed as mass copying and examination of that centre be cancelled, he added.
