The highly competitive Rajasthan Eligibility Examination for Teachers or REET will see some 16 lakh students attempt the test for 31,000 posts in government schools
Mobile internet and SMS will be snapped in five districts of Rajasthan for 12 hours on Sunday as the state holds an important exam to select teachers for government schools, the state government has said. The move is to prevent cheating in exams, officials have said.
The highly competitive Rajasthan Eligibility Examination for Teachers or REET will see some 16 lakh students attempt the test for 31,000 posts in government schools.
The district collectors in Ajmer, Dausa, Alwar, Jaipur and Jhunjhunu - the five areas where internet connectivity will be affected - can decide if they want to extend or shorten the blackout period. Officials in more districts have been given a free hand to take a call on snapping mobile internet, if needed.
A person needs to pass the REET to become a teacher in Rajasthan government schools.
