Cheating during board examinations is a widespread problem in Pakistan and undermines the integrity of the country’s educational system. Students who work hard and stick to the rules are robbed of the fruits of their efforts. The authorities must ensure strict rules, surprise visits to the examination halls and the halls should be monitored with CCTV surveillance to ensure that invigilators are performing their duties honestly.
Parents and teachers should also work together to encourage a culture where honesty is valued over shortcuts. Only then we can build a fair system that values real knowledge and hard work.
