The Jammu and Kashmir Board of School Education (JKBOSE) has prohibited examination supervisory staff from carrying mobile phones during exam hours to ensure fair conduct of board examinations. In a circular issued on 21 October, the Board directed all centre superintendents to ensure that supervisory staff deposit their phones before the start of exams. Centre superintendents are personally responsible for compliance.

Both greaterkashmir.com and kashmirlife.net report the same circular with identical details: a ban on phones for supervisory staff, an exemption for centre superintendents, and a rule on question paper retention. The coverage is uniform straight reporting with no discernible slant. Neither source names the exams affected or the start date of the new rule, leaving the scope of the directive open.
