For this exam, the centers were Mahatma Gandhi Government School Station, Shribhuwanbhanu Jain Surishwar Umavi, Senior Secondary School Senti, Vision College, and MPG College. Due to the ballot boxes being kept in the district’s largest senior school, Shaheed Major Natwar Singh Shaktawat, this time it was not made an exam center. At one of the exam centers in the city, about three dozen candidates who arrived late were not allowed entry. This led to a prolonged argument from the candidates, with some being disappointed. These candidates remained gathered outside the center.
