Mobile phones, text books, test papers, calculators and other items which can be helpful for the exams would not be allowed in the examination halls, and no unauthorised persons will be allowed to enter the examination centres. He informed that special monitoring teams have been formed by the board, along with eight special squads for surprise checking of exam centres set up by the provincial government.
