**Important rules to follow**
Only black ink ballpoint pens and blank clipboards or hardboards will be permitted at the exam center. Mobile phones, smartwatches, Bluetooth devices, calculators, pen drives, earphones, ATM cards, and any other electronic devices are strictly prohibited.
The use of whitener, blades, or erasers on the OMR sheet is not allowed.
