Armed personnel belonging to the Central Industrial Security Force formally assumed round-the-clock physical security responsibilities at the National Testing Agency’s primary administrative complex in the national capital. The deployment followed direct directives from the Union Ministry of Education to seal examination databases, servers, and confidential paper depository vaults in the aftermath of widespread irregularities during national entrance examinations.
The elite paramilitary contingent established multi-tier access-control perimeters equipped with biometric screening kiosks, baggage scanners, and anti-eavesdropping electronic shields surrounding confidential paper-setting rooms. Senior security officials confirmed that all staff entry logs, vendor deliveries, and digital data transit pipelines are now subjected to rigorous military-grade surveillance to eliminate physical compromises.
Educational administrators indicated that fortifying the physical perimeter represents an integral phase of a comprehensive systemic overhaul aimed at rebuilding student confidence in centralized competitive tests. Specialized technical audit teams are concurrently reviewing computer infrastructure to prevent cyber breaches ahead of upcoming examination schedules.
