Students were forced to write their examinations on open grounds due to overcrowding of the premises of Ram Lakhan Singh Yadav (RLSY) College in Bettiah on Sunday.
The students were found writing for the GS exams in the corridors, and the crowded atmosphere of the grounds, where mass copying was seen taking place. Over 5000 students were allotted the college as exam center, which has a capacity of 2000.
Examination In-Charge Rajeshwar Prasad said, “Capacity of college is about 2000, but over 5000 students have been allotted exam centre here. We’ve requested concerned authorities to build exam hall in campus.”
“This problem can only be solved with the construction of a proper examination hall that can accommodate more students. We have contacted all authorities concerned, but an exam hall is yet to be constructed,” the exam-in-charge added.
Prasad said the absence of an examination hall is not only causing problems for the students in taking their exams, but is also impacting the results of the students due to bad handwriting.
