The education department of Chandigarh witnessed significant participation as 865 candidates appeared for the written examination for Trained Graduate Teachers (TGTs) positions on Sunday. The recruitment drive, organized under Samagra Shiksha Chandigarh, aims to fill 104 teaching posts across various subjects.

Massive Registration and Examination Details

The examination attracted substantial interest from aspiring teachers, with approximately 1,630 candidates registering for the opportunity. The written test was conducted in two separate shifts to accommodate different subject specializations, specifically for TGT English and TGT Hindi positions.

Despite the high number of registrations, the actual attendance saw 865 candidates participating in the crucial examination that could determine their teaching careers in Chandigarh's educational institutions.

Stringent Security Measures Implemented

The examination authorities left no stone unturned in ensuring the integrity of the recruitment process. Biometric attendance systems were deployed at all examination centers to verify the identity of each candidate and prevent any impersonation attempts.

Additional security measures included comprehensive CCTV surveillance throughout the examination halls and the use of mobile phone jammers to prevent any electronic malpractice. Police personnel were strategically stationed at examination centers to conduct thorough frisking of candidates and maintain overall security.

To further enhance transparency, the Chandigarh administration deployed two senior officers as independent observers to monitor the entire examination process.

Clean Examination Conduct

The rigorous security measures proved effective as no cases of impersonation, copying, or any other malpractice were reported during the examination. The successful conduct of the examination without any untoward incidents marks a significant achievement for the education department.

The massive turnout for these 104 positions highlights the continuing demand for government teaching jobs in Chandigarh and the competitive nature of public sector recruitment in the education field.
