Student Made To Remove Bra Over Exam Cheat Fears by ekensi01: 12:54pm On Jul 19, 2017 |
An Indian student said
Monday she was made
to remove her bra in
public by school
authorities over exam
cheating fears, minutes
before sitting a crucial
test.
Authorities issue strict
dress codes to tackle
widespread cheating on
the entrance test for
India’s prestigious
medical colleges.
But there is no mention
of bras on this year’s
prohibited articles list
which includes dark
clothes, long sleeves,
brooches, badges, closed
shoes and socks.
The student, who has
not been identified, told
media she was at the
test centre in Kerala
state on Sunday when a
metal detector started to
beep during a security
check.
“At that time, they told
that without removing
my innerwear I cannot
enter the exam hall since
they (bra hooks) are
made of metal. So, I took
off my bra there itself
and gave it to my mom,
she was waiting
outside,” the student
told NDTV news
network.
The girl was quoted in
The Times of India as
saying that she lost all
her “confidence and
composure when I was
asked to remove it in
front of everybody”.
Another student’s parent
said his daughter was
forced to remove the
button on her jeans after
it set off the metal
detector.
“She was sent back, she
came back and told me
‘Papa, the jeans button
has to be removed, the
button is an
objectionable item’.
Promptly I removed the
button,” the father told
NDTV.
“Then I went to a shop
about three kilometres
from the exam centre
and bought a new dress
for her after getting the
shop opened.”
The school principal said
he was unaware of the
student’s underwear
ordeal but admitted his
school stuck to the rules.
“We have clear
instructions that if the
metal detector beeps, no
one can be allowed
inside. Whenever it
beeped, we told
students to remove
what they have,”
Jalaluddin K. told NDTV.
Cheating in exams is
common in India
including paying large
bribes to buy test
papers, although there
have been more
elaborate ruses.
Hundreds of people were
arrested in eastern Bihar
state in 2015 for scaling
the walls of schools and
providing crib sheets and
study materials to their
relatives during exams.
