The Uttar Pradesh Technical University (UPTU) has found out a unique way to check impersonation. They have introduced some changes in the state entrance examination -2014 for admission to technical colleges.
The candidates who appear for the exam have to write two or three sentences in their own handwriting on the first page of the question paper booklet. It will be a proof to find out whether the applicant and the examinee were the same.
There is another major change in the admit card. According to the officials, the admit card will have two columns for candidate’s signature and thumb impression.
The admit card will also have a barcode printed on it to ensure no proxy candidate takes the exam.
