Keeping in mind mass scale copying in last years' matriculation examination, the Bihar government on Wednesday i.e. March 9 resolved to conduct this year's test in a 'free and fair' manner.
"Our government has taken a resolve to conduct free and fair examination for intermediate and matriculation. We will ensure no unfair means are used in the examination. We have successfully conducted intermediate examination in a free and fair manner recently," Bihar education minister Ashok Choudhary said.
According to PTI, Choudhary was replying to a debate on the education department's budgetary demand of Rs 21,897.02 crore for 2016-17.
Recently intermediate examination concluded in the state, while the matric examination is to be held between March 12 and 18.
Last year a photograph of mass cheating went viral, it was of a government school in Vaishali showing relatives/friends of students climbing walls and passing chits to students appearing for the exam inside.
Elaborating on the measures taken to ensure free and fair examination held during the recent intermediate exam, the education minister said that the government had taken strict action against centre superintendents and other staff from where the department got reports of mass scale copying.
"Besides introducing CCTVs and ensuring deployment of adequate security forces, the state government has also decided not to hold an examination at centres from where the department had got complaints of mass scale copying in the past three years," Choudhary added.
