Guidelines For Candidates With Intellectual Disability (ID)
The visually impaired candidates and candidates whose writing speed is adversely affected
permanently for any reason can use their own scribe at their cost during the online
examination (Preliminary and Main). In all such cases where a scribe is used, the following
rules will apply:
• The candidate will have to arrange his / her own scribe at his/her own cost.
• The scribe may be from any academic stream.
• Both the candidate as well as scribe will have to give a suitable undertaking confirming that
the scribe fulfils all the stipulated eligibility criteria for a scribe mentioned above. Further in
case it later transpires that he/she did not fulfil any laid down eligibility criteria or suppressed
material facts the candidature of the applicant will stand cancelled, irrespective of the result of
the CRP.
• Those candidates who use a scribe shall be eligible for compensatory time of 20 minutes or
otherwise advised for every hour of the examination.
• The scribe arranged by the candidate should not be a candidate for the online
examination under (CRP-Clerks-IX). If violation of the above is detected at any stage of
the process, candidature for CRP of both the candidate and the scribe will be cancelled.
Candidates eligible for and who wish to use the services of a scribe in the examination
should invariably carefully indicate the same in the online application form. Any
subsequent request may not be favourably entertained.
• Only candidates registered for compensatory time will be allowed such concessions
since compensatory time given to candidates shall be system based, it shall not be
possible for the test conducting agency to allow such time if he / she is not registered for
the same. Candidates not registered for compensatory time shall not be allowed such
concessions.
