The ultimate choice should be of the candidate, not much people are comfortable on computers, as like "language should not be a barrier to learning" "mode of examination should not be a barrier to assessment". Deserving must get, needy may have to wait.

The best alternative is to lay down reasonable criteria and let the candidate bring her own writer. The search for good writers may be undertaken by NGOs working in the field. At worst, if exam body is providing writers to show its obligation, or candidate is not in a position to find one for himself, then stringent guidelines ought to be framed to ensure competency. The policy for scribe is lying in the cold storage of government of India......

Last Sunday, I had appeared for the recruitment exam conducted by BPCL for PWD & OBC candidates. In it's advertisement, BPCL had undertaken to provide scribes for PWD candidates requiring them. Unfortunately, the writer provided to me had a very poor command of English. He kept skipping & mispronouncing words. After struggling with the writer for a half-hour, I requested the exam supervisor to provide me with an alternative writer. I was informed that no alternative writers were available & the examination centre (a junior college in Sion) had arranged only three writers for the three PWD candidates appearing for that exam. Since one of the other PWD candidates had failed to appear for the test, I was provided with the writer initially allotted to him. Fortunately, the replacement writer had good reading skills & I was able to proceed smoothly with him. I seek the advice & suggestions of the respected members on the following points. 1.. Are there any guidelines for selection of writers by examination authorities who provide writers to the candidates? B. What guidelines could be framed to ensure that such writers have a reasonable command of English & decent reading skills as a minimum standard? c. In case a replacement writer is unavailable & the PWD candidate is not comfortable with the allotted writer, what steps should the candidate take? d. Is there a provision for the candidates to try writers from a panel of writers provided by the examining authority to decide which writer is suitable? Thanking you all in advance for your invaluable suggestions on above queries.
