Mysuru: DC Abhiram G Sankar has said that the district administration is working towards conducting the SSLC exam in a safe and secure environment.
Addressing FB Live, he stated that for every 200 students, one thermal scanner will be used. They will be allowed to enter the exam centre from 8.30am. He also made it clear the Avila centre has been shifted to the nearby Maharani PU College as the area is sealed down.
The authorities at Shivamogga, Chikkamagaluru, Hassan, Kodagu, Chamarajanagar and Mandya districts have also made arrangements to ensure safety of the students.

The education department has banned the public and organisations from distributing masks near the centres. But they can give the masks to the department officials so they can do the needful. Police will avoid crowding near the centres, he added.
In Mysuru, 22 students are from containment zones. “Special arrangements have been made for them to write the exam,” the DC said.
DDPI Panduranga said that the health department will depute medical teams to all centres to ensure the safety of students.
Meanwhile, the department officials and other government staff, who are deputed for the exam duty, carried out a mock drill at all centres spread in all districts of south Karnataka. Parents were also allowed to visit the centres to be reassured of the preparedness.
