Education Ministry and NTA Enhance Exam Security with New Centers and Observers
The Union Education Ministry and National Testing Agency (NTA) are implementing reforms to enhance examination security and infrastructure. Plans include establishing standardized exam centers in every district with backup facilities to reduce candidate travel and manage disruptions. Concurrently, NTA is creating a permanent pool of independent observers, including retired armed forces, paramilitary personnel, and government officers, to monitor exams. These measures follow security breaches and paper leaks, aiming to improve fairness and oversight across national-level tests like NEET-UG and JEE-Main.
