Last week, students in India faced exam cancellations and leaks, sparking outrage and frustration. Kavya, a disabled student, struggled to access her exam center, only to have her test canceled. Archit, a medical aspirant, now faces uncertainty after a leaking scandal rocked his entrance exam. The education system in India is marred by cheating and paper leaks, affecting millions of aspirants.
Pressure for coveted college seats and fierce competition lead to desperate measures, with touts selling question papers to candidates. The government promises investigations, but students, like Archit, are disillusioned. The system emphasizes exam results over practical skills, leaving students ill-prepared for the job market.
Aspirants and parents protest, demanding retests and reforms. The educationist points to a need for stricter measures to curb cheating. Ultimately, students like Archit are losing faith in the flawed exam system, questioning its integrity and fairness.
