Dec 16, 2024
Patna (Bihar) [India], December 16 : Educator and YouTuber Faizal Khan on Monday argued that the uncertainty around normalisation creates unnecessary anxiety among students preparing for the Bihar Public Service Commission (BPSC) Preliminary Examination, stating that the decision has caused "mental trauma" to the students as well as the teachers during the period.
Speaking to ANI, Faizal Khan, also known as Khan Sir said that the initial notification of different question papers for 38 districts had caused distress among students and teachers.
"..The exam was supposed to be conducted in December, initially, a notification was issued in the newspapers that, the question papers of 38 districts would be different and after this, the BPSC students and teachers went through a mental trauma. (Bihar Public Service) Commission said that this way paper leaks would not happen," said Khan Sir.
He also expressed his concern over paper leaks. "The way paper leaks is a scary issue, normalisation is a scary issue too...our meeting was called and in that also we had told the Commission that it won't be possible but they did not listen to us...we had to protest because we had no choice. We stopped the protest when the Commission issued a notification that they would only use one question paper...," said Khan Sir.
Khan Sir has been involved in protests alongside BPSC aspirants demanding the removal of the normalisation process.
Khan Sir also clarified that he does not wish to contest elections but instead wants to focus on his teaching work.
" I don't want to contest the election, I want to clear it...I don't get enough rest after teaching...I am tired of answering," he said.
Earlier this month, students studying for BPSC protested against the change in exam patterns and the normalisation process and demanded that exams be held in 'one shift and one paper' to avoid the normalisation process.
