Talking to media persons, the District Commissioner, Kokrajhar, PK Dwivedi, said a total of 69,833 candidates appeared in the ADRE today across 101 examination centres in Kokrajhar. He said the process went smoothly, marking an efficient conduct of the large recruitment drive examination.

Meanwhile, some of the candidates at the Kokrajhar Don Bosco examination centre alleged that the unaware invigilators delayed the distribution of the official marksheet (OMR sheet) for some minutes.

Due to the arrival of hundreds of thousand candidates in Kokrajhar town, the district administration, Kokrajhar, was prompted to issue prohibitory orders and shut down daily and weekly markets and other business establishments, while internet services were also cut off until the end of the examination for smooth conduct of the recruitment examination.
