  • Question

  • Statement: There has been an unprecedented increase in use of malpractices by the students during various examinations held in the country this year.

    Courses of Action:

    1. All the concerned authorities conducting these examinations should immediately take effective measures to curb this menace.
    2. All those students who are detected to have used unfair means should be debarred from appearing in any of these examinations for the next three years.
    3. Using unfair means should immediately be made cognizable offence by passing necessary legislations.


  • Options
  • A. Only I follows
  • B. Only I and II follow
  • C. Only II and III follow
  • D. Only I and III follow
  • E. All follow

  • Correct Answer
  • Only I and II follow 

    Explanation
    Use of malpractices does away with the basic essence of examinations and hence it ought to be checked. So, I follows. Also, the fear of harsh punishments would prevent students from using unfair means. So, II also follows. But declaring it a crime may spoil the career of students who are caught using unfair means. So, III does not follow.
