Live Monitoring of Exam Centres through AI-enabled CCTV Cameras
Punjab Newsline, Chandigarh-
To ensure a fair and smooth conduct of the upcoming Haryana Teacher Eligibility Test (HTET) scheduled on July 30 and 31, 2025, the Haryana Board of School Education, Bhiwani, has made robust arrangements.
A spokesperson of the Board informed that before entering the examination centres, all candidates will be frisked using metal detectors and their biometric verification will be conducted. It will be ensured that no candidate carries any prohibited material. To prevent any malpractice or anti-social activities, live monitoring of exam centres will be conducted from the Board headquarters via a high-tech command and control centre using AI-powered CCTV cameras. Full security arrangements will also be in place around the exam centres through local police.
All officials and staff have been instructed to wear their identity cards during the exam and strictly follow the guidelines issued by the Board. They are expected to carry out their responsibilities with honesty and impartiality to ensure the successful and smooth conduct of the exams.
The Board spokesperson further stated that to strictly curb cheating and other irregularities, around 220 flying squads have been appointed. Additionally, each exam centre across the state will have a full-time observer, comprising one officer from the district administration and one official or staff representative from the education board. It is clearly stated that if any candidate or official/staff is found involved in cheating, misconduct or any criminal activity at any exam centre, strict action will be taken against them. Any kind of negligence or irresponsible behaviour by any official/staff will not be tolerated under any circumstances.
It was also mentioned that if any member of the flying squad has a blood relation appearing at any exam centre, they must immediately inform the Board office and the district-level flying squad and must refrain from inspecting that particular centre.
It is worth noting that over 4 lakh candidates will appear for the HTET across 673 examination centres in the state. The Level-3 (PGT) exam will be held on Wednesday, July 30 from 3:00 PM to 5:30 PM. The Level-2 (TGT) exam will be held on Thursday, July 31 from 10:00 AM to 12:30 PM, and the Level-1 (PRT) exam will be conducted on the same day from 3:00 PM to 5:30 PM.
