The recommendations by the panel likely focus on reducing offline exams or opting for hybrid exams where switching to online mode completely is not feasible; capping the number of attempts in major exams, and reducing the role of outsourced staff and centres to ensure sanctity of exams is not affected. Among the recommendations that the panel is likely to make are reducing offline exams or opting for hybrid exams where switching to online mode completely is not feasible; capping the number of attempts in major exams including medical entrance NEET and reducing the role of outsourced staff and centres to ensure sanctity of exams is not affected.
