NEW DELHI, Feb. 23– India’s eastern state of Bihar has banned
students appearing for this year’s Class X board examinations from wearing
shoes and socks, to curb cheating.
“The board has decided that candidates wearing only slippers will be
allowed to enter the examination halls, those coming to the centres wearing
shoes and socks will have to remove them outside the hall,” head of Bihar
School Examination Board Anand Kishor told the media. “The board has
taken this decision to prevent cheating,” he added. A total of 1.7 million
students are appearing for this year’s Class X board exams in Bihar that
began on Wednesday and will continue till next Monday, another senior
official said Thursday. Bihar hogged limelight for mass cheating in 2015
when photos of parents and friends of students climbing school building
walls to pass on answers were published by local media. Some photos even
showed policemen posted outside the exam centers accepting bribes to look
the other way. Some 750 students were expelled and 300 arrested by Bihar
government after the incident prompted ridicule on social media. Cheating
in school exams has been going on in Bihar for a long time. A mafia,
comprising teachers and school authorities, connives with parents who bribe
them to rig entire answer sheets. Sometimes teachers even appear at exams
on behalf of students. – XINHUA
