Telangana: QR code on intermediate examination hall tickets yields positive results

The initiative has proven beneficial, especially in cities like Hyderabad, where identifying college locations can be challenging

Hyderabad: The QR code, which comes embedded with the examination centre location, an initiative introduced by the Telangana Board of Intermediate Education for the first time on the hall tickets for the intermediate public examinations has yielded positive results.

“While the Board announced a grace time of five minutes after the 9 am reporting time, students are not relying on it due to the effectiveness of the QR code system. This has ensured punctuality and eliminated confusion regarding exam centre locations,” TG BIE Secretary S Krishna Aditya said on Friday.

Scanning the QR code with a smartphone, students can easily identify their examination centre, check the distance, estimate the time required to reach and even get real-time traffic updates.

The initiative has proven beneficial, especially in cities like Hyderabad, where identifying college locations can be challenging. Unlike district and mandal centers, where exam locations are well known, Hyderabad presents navigation difficulties.

Meanwhile, over 15,000 first-year intermediate students were absent for English paper – I examination conducted at 1532 centres across the State on Friday. A total of 5,03,104 students registered and 4,87,317 appeared for the examination. Six malpractice cases with one in Suryapet and five in Nagarkurnool were booked during the examination.

Observers were sent to Suryapet, Nizamabad, Nagarkurnool, Vikarabad, Medak and Hyderabad districts from Board to the centers, the Board said, adding that examination was conducted smoothly and peacefully, without any untoward incidents.
