Sir,
Education has now become a commodity in today’s era of commercialization where everything is for sale.Marks are being sold in exchange for huge sum of money. The pious institution of education has now become polluted because of such students who don’t work hard for improving their merit but use unethical tactics for easy way of getting through the exam .Some teachers and higher officials of the exam conducting authorities assist in the modus operandi of such students by demanding illegal gratification .Alas! education is on sale.The recent incidents of paper leakage during the conduct of state board exams and similar such incidents which create a shadow of doubt against BOSE aithorities and the faculty is of serious concern.Future of those students is at stake who burn midnight oil with a hope for better academic excellence for a brighter future.A foolproof system is required to curb such practices in future and strict action under law must be taken to deal with all those who indulge in such activities .
Yours etc….
