Bihar state examination system reforms

Overview

The Bihar government has initiated efforts to reform its state examination system following controversies involving paper leaks and cheating. Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary announced the formation of a five-member special committee, potentially led by a retired judge, to review secondary, higher secondary, university, and competitive examinations.

The committee is tasked with evaluating measures to prevent malpractice and integrating AI, digital technology, and cybersecurity to create a more transparent testing framework, with recommendations expected within three months.

In conjunction with these reforms, the government launched the ‘Vidya Sahi’ programme, a 24/7 interactive learning support initiative providing live tutor support and digital materials to approximately 300,000 students in model schools across all 38 districts. The state also reaffirmed its ₹4 lakh Student Credit Card scheme for higher education.
