Not only Uttar Pradesh, but not too long ago a report of board official teaching students ways to cheat also made headlines. A Gujarat Secondary and Higher Secondary Education Board official was allegedly passing on tips and teaching ways in which they can cheat in the exams even under heavy scrutiny.
Mukesh Pancholi went on to tell the group that they could successfully cheat by peeping into the answers but by different angles to avoid getting caught because of the cameras installed. He even said that the teachers can also help the students peep into answer sheets of other students and help them. He further asserted that people can just cut off the CCTV wires of the camera and avoid the trouble that the camera can cause.
