The Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) on Monday restricted the entry of outsiders within 200 yards of HSC, Alim and equivalent examination centres to ensure the peaceful conduct of the upcoming public examinations.
The examinations will start in the capital and elsewhere in the country from Thursday.
In a public notice, DMP Commissioner SM Sazzat Ali on Monday said: "Since it is necessary to ensure that the examinations are held in a fair and peaceful manner at the examination centres, I hereby declare that the entry of the public, except for the examinees and persons concerned with the examinations, within 200 yards of the examination centres is completely prohibited."
This order will remain in force on the examination days.
