While the first session started from 11:30 am, the second session began at 3 in the afternoon. "The examinations were conducted smoothly and we were prepared to handle any sort of eventuality.

We had already instructed the administration to ensure proper security measures and there was fool-proof security at all the centres," Rai added.
