I would gently scrub them with a nail file/sand paper and stick them back in the wet towel

okay, new update, I took the smallest of them all, as I thought it would not germinate as it was immature, so I cracked it open, to my surprise I found a well-formed tap root inside it. Does this mean the other seeds are finding it troublesome to come out of their shells?
Yes, for some reason they don't crack open.
Did you plant that seed or was it ruined?

That particular seeds is ruined, but I am planning to plant the others tomorrow, and see what happens
Do so, keep them warm and cosy.

This is my readings till date, least temperature I have faced is 22 C, and sometimes humidity goes up to 80%.
I've potted the seeds on 2nd December. Hoping for the best. I am giving it 12/12 light cycle from seed, to see how that turns out. The middle clay pot is tomato
btw
It looks a bit clay-ish.. Will roots be able to push through and get air?
Electricity experiment?? Have done that too
I will await your results

Okay I think it's safe to assume my attempt of germination was a failure, and these seeds won't sprout. However I got some more seeds from a friend of mine, have a look. I think they are pretty healthy. So I plan on germinating them. The following picture is of those seeds.
So I did some research and I found that the best process of germinating is putting them in a glass of water for around 18 to 24 hrs, and then transfering them to a wet paper towel to germinate, keeping it warm and humid.
