I agree with the opinion of not imposing any restrictions on scribe guidelines but as far as my knowledge the cut of's of various examinations like IBPS and SBI officer as well as clerical have multi folded in these 4 years . Since 2014 the cut off has almost doubled instead of the rise in level of several examinations due to mal practices of several candidates in exams with the help of scribes. The latest recruitment for SBI- probationary officer saw a path breaking cut off for visually impaired having difference of only about 2 marks with general category . I think now it is a very alarming situation and we should strive forward for use of technology in exams for visually impaired so that we can give freely our exams without help of any individual and I can assure that the cut off's will definitely go down and only deserving candidates with sound knowledge of screen reading softwares like jaws and nvda be selected for such posts. my opinion rests with use of screen reading softwares in exam centres rather than use of scribes which are very much difficult to be invigilated at the exam centres and now with the advent of new technology each and every visually impaired must be aquinted with the knowledge of screen reading softwares for there day to day work in their offices and the exam if conducted with the help of screen reading softwares will definitely be helpful to recruit only deserving candidates with satisfactory knowledge of screen reading softwares. thanks and regards Avee Gupta UIICL
