schools across the state. The students must pass the exams to continue
their education and that’s why their parents are so desperate.
“It’s virtually impossible to conduct
fair examinations without the cooperation of parents,” said P.K. Shahi,
Bihar’s education minister. “It is not possible to monitor the 6
million parents and others who accompany the students to the
examination centers.”

officials supervising the examination. About 25 parents were also
arrested after being caught helping their children. But were later
released.
The State education authorities later canceled examinations held at
four centers after they received reports of large-scale cheating.
