Mangaluru: The Railway Recruitment Board has issued revised guidelines following public outrage over the rules for the Nursing Superintendent recruitment examination.
According to the new guidelines, candidates wearing cultural or religious symbols such as Janivara (sacred thread) and mangalsutra should not be disturbed and must be allowed to enter the examination centers without removing them.
The recruitment examination is scheduled to be held on April 28, 29, and 30 across various centers. The candidates expressed displeasure after it was mentioned in the earlier exam guidelines that candidates should remove their Janivara and mangalsutra before appearing for the examination.

Washington, May 21 (AP): President Donald Trump used a White House meeting to confront South African President Cyril Ramaphosa, accusing his country of failing to address the killing of white farmers.
“People are fleeing South Africa for their own safety," said Trump, who at one point dimmed the lights in the Oval Office to play a video of a communist politician playing a controversial anti-apartheid song that includes lyrics about killing a farmer. "Their land is being confiscated and in many cases they're being killed."
Ramaphosa pushed back against Trump's accusation. The South African leader had sought to use the meeting to set the record straight and salvage his country's relationship with the United States. The bilateral relationship is at its lowest point since South Africa enforced its apartheid system of racial segregation, which ended in 1994.
“We are completely opposed to that,” Ramaphosa said of the behaviour alleged by Trump in their exchange.
Experts in South Africa say there is no evidence of whites being targeted, although farmers of all races are victims of violent home invasions in a country that suffers from a very high crime rate.
