Quotes
DGP Neerja Gotru
Chairperson of the Police Recruitment Board
“We established earlier the protocol for use of RFID chips during physical tests and have now fine-tuned this system. The chips are embedded in velcro straps that are tied to the feet of the candidates and then used to correctly measure their running times when they cross the finish line and the data is then interpreted in the computer. This ensures transparency.”

“We are also using Facial Recognition Technology and Biometrics which are cross-referenced with the data that is carried in bar code format on the call letters earlier issued to the candidates. Apart from the technology, there is close manual supervision by senior officers during the entire process.”
