WHERE ARE THE NEHEMAIH’S


This exactly what we are talking about. These children whose parents are carrying out this act of malpractices for, are our leaders of tomorrow. What sort of leaders are we breading? Cheats? It is a disgrace to countries where things like this still take place.

But in the midst of these bad eggs are the righteous, people who have been born to put an end to things like this. The Nehemiah’s of those nations! Please rise up as you read this blog and rebuild the broken walls of your nation. Fix the educational system and help to fight against malpractices.

Raise good teachers that will ensure that they put in the best in their students so that they will be confident enough to seat for examination without their parents taking the risk of climbing walls for their sake.

Encourage your children positively and do the right thing for yourself and your nation. The greatest tragedy in life is dying with your potentials, use it for your generation.

Happy reading!!!!


Parents in India climb school walls to help their children cheat in exams

Most parents encourage their kids to knuckle down and do their homework when it comes to getting a good education.

But these parents in India took a more radical approach.

During India’s equivalent to GCSE exam time, they scaled the walls of a school building in their droves to help their children to cheat.

In the remarkable footage, the families of pupils can be seen climbing to perilous heights to pass notes through the windows to their children.

The footage, taken at the Vidya Niketan School in the eastern state of Bihar, has resulted in the expulsion of more than 600 pupils.

Parents were also seen staging similar interventions in the cities of Hajipur and Nawada, with one parent telling NDTV that they were forced to take drastic action because ‘teachers don’t teach anything’, and often failed to turn up to class.

State Education Minister P.K. Shahi described the cheating as a ‘huge problem’.

‘It is the responsibility of the society to ensure a cheating-free exam’, he said.

‘First, I appeal to parents and guardians to stop cheating to help the government ensure free and fair exams’.



According to officials, more than 1,000 students were caught cheating in subjects including Maths and English, but only a few more than 600 were eventually expelled, while several parents were also arrested.

Almost 1.5 million students are currently undertaking India’s class 10 board tests, amid reports of widespread cheating and parents bribing officials to let them into examination halls.
