Candidates Of Indian Army Made To Take Exam In Underwear

According to the report, candidates at an Indian army recruitment day in Bihar were made to take a written exam in their underwear to prevent them from cheating.

This step was taken after a spate of exam cheating scandals in the eastern state.

Images in the Indian Express showed dozens of men sitting cross-legged in a field wearing only underpants, with many resting their test papers on their thighs, while a uniformed supervisor stood guard.

The paper quoted an army source as saying they took the radical step to “save time on frisking so many people” after more than 1,000 candidates turned up.
