Common Entrance Test (CET) rank holders can get their documents verified online from this year. The Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) is planning the online document verification system from the 2022-23 academic year, and is launching a special software for the purpose. This would ensure that students and parents need not head to the KEA head office at Bengaluru and other district centres for physical verification.
CET, the gateway to professional courses, such as engineering, BSc (agriculture) and others, was held between June 16 to 18 and the KEA is planning to declare the results soon.
Other processes of the CET, such as application and payment, are already online. But for document verification, students had to be physically present at the centres, and the process would sometimes take long hours. This was especially a problem for students in rural areas, who would have trouble reaching the centres which were often far off.
