The Sindh High Court (SHC) has directed all educational boards of Sindh to design a mechanism to control cheating during examinations.
As per reports, a single bench comprising Justice Salahuddin Panhwar directed the boards to take into account the suggestions made by experts while hearing the case pertaining to cheating during examinations.
Institute of Business
Administration’s (IBA) registrar said that they have a standard mechanism for
making the question paper for exams in Sindh, suggesting that the papers should
be audited and monitored by a third party while checking and marking should be
made foolproof by surveillance through CCTV cameras.
While experts have advised that exam
centres should be monitored through CCTV cameras and Rangers officials should
also be placed there.
Justice Panhwar while giving his
remarks said, “It is the fundamental right of every citizen to gain quality
education under Article 25 of the constitution. It has become difficult to survive
without higher education”.
The court has now summoned the
chairpersons of the educational boards, Sindh Text Book Board chairperson, the
managing director of the Sindh education foundation and the boards and
universities secretary in a personal capacity, seeking a report from the
parties and other relevant institutions by December 11.
