Tirupati: SSC public exams began on a peaceful note in the district on Thursday with more than 51,000 students appeared for the first language paper-I. For the first time, the examiners have been allotted to various centres in jumbling method, which created some dissatisfaction among them as they have to go far off places.

Heavy rush was seen at exam centres with students and their parents reached much early on the first day to confirm their centres. Students had some anxious moments till they were allowed inside the centres as they were writing their first public exam at other schools which they were not familiar with.

The authorities have instructed students to reach examination centres at least 30 minutes in advance but they have reached with their elders even before 8 am for the exam to begin at 9.30 am. After the examination, students felt a sigh of relief as they found the question paper was a little bit easy.

A student L Santosh said that he fared well and got relieved of all tensions. Now, as they were familiar with the examination hall there may be no need to have any stress from next exam, he opined. However, parents were under stress because of the OMR sheet which the students have to fill before the commencement of exam.

Though they were trained on filling it up, parents have their own apprehensions and they too got relieved of their tension after the first exam. At all examination centres, section 144 was enforced and police security was also provided. RTC has allowed the students to go to their examination centres even without bus passes and considered the hall tickets as passes.

Speaking to The Hans India, DEO Dr K Panduranga Swamy said that out of 52,218 students registered for Telugu exam, 51510 have attended which may account for 98.64 attendance.

The squads, DEO himself and other officers have covered 102 centres out of 264 and found that everything went on well. No malpractice case was booked across the district and there were no complaints about furniture or other amenities as everything was taken care of, DEO said.
