Exhibit 1: Bihar topper says she asked her dad to make her pass her exams but he went ahead and made her the topper.
Exhibit 2: Parents climb walls to pass chits in Bihar during Class 10 exams.
These are among the many cheating scams and scandals that took place over the years in the Indian state of Bihar. If you still have some doubt then take a look at this trending video wherein some students were seen taking Biology exams without any invigilator in sight in Nalanda district in Bihar.
Some went ahead and used the TV inside the examination room (installed under the smart class project) to play Bhojpuri songs by Bihar’s loved artist Pawan Singh.
However, others conveniently cheated from mobile phones and chits inside closed doors, reported ETV Bharat.
Some even didn’t take the pain to write their exams but instead made videos and danced to the song.
The Class XI students were appearing for the exam at a Higher Secondary School, located at Bowrisarai village under the Islampur block of the district.
The outrageous video was shared by journalist Anurag Chaddha who wrote in Hindi:
“On one hand, the Biology exam is going on in the class, and on the other Pawan Singh’s songs are being played on TV. This is the condition of Bihar CM Nitish Kumar’s district.”
Watch:
एक ओर कक्षा में बायोलॉजी की परीक्षा चल रही है और दूसरी ओर टीवी पर पवन सिंह के गाने।
यह हाल बिहार के CM नीतीश कुमार के ज़िले के हैं। pic.twitter.com/NajHNfB67o

According to the District Education Officer Keshav Prasad, they have taken cognizance of the viral video and the education officer of Islampur block has been given the responsibility to probe the incident.
The internet went berserk on watching this video. This is how they reacted:
Abhi tak TV sahi salamat hai aur chori nahi hua, ye badi baat hai. Baaki exams to aate jaate rahte hain😂

As much as the state is famous for mass-producing the country’s IAS/IPS/IFS officers, it’s also known for people indulging in unfair means to pass examinations. This is appalling.
