One of the afflicted applicants, Mubarak Abdulmumeen in a protest letter made accessible to newsmen blamed the low performance of the physically challenged candidates on the insensitivity of the Examination Body to their plights.

He expressed dissatisfaction about the lack of braille machines, one of the instructional tools intended to help visually impaired candidates prepare for and support them during the externally administered exams.
