Kolkata Police Sets Helpline for Madhyamik Exams

“In addition to searchlights, the department’s special vehicle Airavat will be used to transport examinees. All forest villages and forest-adjacent areas with examinees have been identified as sensitive.”

“Dense fog persists on forest roads from early morning till around 9am. Fog lights and high-resolution searchlights will be used to detect the movement of wild animals.”

“Thirty mobile patrolling teams and vehicles have been deployed across 39 sensitive stretches covering nearly 296km to manage human-wildlife conflict and assist examinees during the exam days.”

“Surveillance has been intensified. We are coordinating closely with the police and education department.”

“We won't take chances. Forest personnel have been instructed not to use shortcut routes, as elephant movement is common in the early morning hours.”

“These services will operate on various routes connecting exam centres across north Bengal to ensure the safe transport of students.”

“We will ensure that all candidates can give the examinations smoothly. We have a helpline so that if any student faces any problem, we take the responsibility to take them to the examination hall.”

“Heartfelt best wishes to all secondary examinees. May everyone have a bright and promising future.”

“Candidates must write the question paper serial number in the designated space on the answer booklet. They will be allowed to enter examination centres from 10 am.”
