Newly appointed RPSC Chairman, Lalit K Panwar said that the decision was taken in a full commission meeting and got in-principle nod from the state government.

"We will install mobile phone jammers at the centers so that no candidate can use any hidden device for cheating in competitive examinations," Panwar said.
