JEE Main 2024: Biometric Attendance, Frisking Mandatory After Toilet Breaks
JEE Main 2024: As per National Testing Agency (NTA), candidates appearing for the JEE Main 2024 engineering entrance exam will have to undergo frisking and biometric attendance again after toilet breaks. As of now, the JEE Main aspirants are screened at the entry and biometric attendance is also recorded there. Not only the candidates but the officials, observers, staff members and even helps serving refreshments will have to undergo the same process.
As per PTI report, NTA Director Subodh Kumar Singh said, "The move is aimed at ensuring there are no cases of use of unfair means or proxy attendance. We have strict mechanisms in place already but the idea is to make the exam completely foolproof to ensure there are zero incidents." He also added, "The same process will be extended to other exams as well in the longer run."
NTA is also taking stock of the private centres with computers from where it has received complaints on the preparedness as well as on security concerns. The observers are being trained to identify concerns as well as identify unfair means.

This year, NTA has recorded 12.3 lakh JEE Main 2024 registrations for January session.
