Indian schoolgirl held over exam cheating scandal in exams

NEW DELHI: Police have captured a schoolgirl in upper east India for purportedly tricking amid weight stuffed exams that saw her come top in the state in a developing embarrassment, a senior officer said on Sunday.

Prevailing voices in the devastated condition of Bihar have gone under serious weight to take action against tricking this year amid pivotal school-leaving exams sat by a huge number of understudies.

Educators and state instruction authorities were left red-confronted a year ago after TV footage indicated scores of edgy guardians and others scaling external dividers of structures to pass books and bits of paper to understudies inside taking exams.

Police on Saturday captured the 17-year-old, who picked up the most astounding results in the state for year 12 in humanities, in the wake of issuing warrants for a string of exam-garnish understudies.

Powers got to be suspicious after the young lady, when tested by a TV journalist this month, neglected to accurately spell "political science", which she had been contemplating. She included that she thought the subject included cooking.
