Strict dress code for medical entrance test; Hijab girls must report 1 hour early

April 29, 2016

Bengaluru, Apr 29: The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has decided to exercise caution. A dress code has been imposed to ensure that Sunday's All-India Pre-Medical/Pre-Dental Test (AIPMT), which will now be renamed as National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test 1, takes place without any malpractice.

In a circular issued on Tuesday by the officer on special duty (AIPMT), the CBSE said that candidates can wear slippers or sandals, but not shoes. All candidates have been advised to wear “light” clothes and wear half-sleeves without big buttons, badges or brooches, which could possibly be used to hide communication devices.

Going a step further, it has also said “ornaments like ring, earring, nose-pin, chain/necklace, pendant, badge, brooch etc. should be carefully checked.

Items such as wallet, handbags, hairpin, hair band, belt and cap are not allowed into the examination centres. Stationery items like pen, scale, calculator, plastic pouches and writing pad are also banned in the exam centres.

However, in a relief to some candidates, the CBSE has said that candidates wearing customary/religious dresses should report to the centre by 8.30 a.m., one hour prior to the reporting time so that they can be checked.

Last year, candidates taking the AIPMT re-exam were not allowed to wear hijaab .

These measures have been initiated by the CBSE after the AIPMT test of 2015 was cancelled following allegations of irregularities, and a re-exam was conducted in July 2015 based on a Supreme Court order.

If Hijab was worn by hindu girls... Nithyananda, Asaaram bapu, narayan sai, and many swamis Would never got the chance to gaze with their EVIL eyes...
Hijab would have protected these young hindu girls from being gazed & then molested and then commit rape.

Study Why Hijab is in ISLAM & other religion even Hinduism & Christianity before you display your stupidity.
