To avoid malpractices, the Department of School Education and Literacy (DSEL) has decided conduct the class 10 final exams (SSLC) under drone surveillance in select centres.
During the SSLC exams of the academic year 2022-23, malpractices were reported, particularly in the north Karnataka region. The department suspended around 60 invigilators and debarred many students.
Karnataka has 3,305 centres for the 2023-24 exams — 1,845 cluster centres, 1,354 non-cluster centres and 106 centres for private candidates.
