            The Editor, 
            The Tribune, 
            Chandigarh. 
 
Dear Sir, 
            I seek to express my views on the use of unfair 
means by students in examinations. I shall feel highly 
obliges if you publish my views on the subject in your 
esteemed Daily. 
The use of unfair means by students has become very 
common. But the menace has assumed dangerous 
proportions now. Copying in examinations goes on 
unchecked. No wonder, here and there, some invigilators 
are found helping the examiners in the use of unfair 
means.  The evil has become deep-rooted. 
The system of examination needs, complete overhauling. 
            In fact, examinations have become a farce. They 
have lost their meaning. Among the reform in the 
examination system, introduction of internal assessment, 
setting of objective type questions and delinting of degrees 
can be suggested. The purpose of holding examination is 
to test the ability of the students. Any system of 
examinations that does not serve this end is purposeless. 
The sooner it is abolished the better it will be. 
            I hope these views of mine will go a long way in 
making examinations meaningful. 
Thanking you, 
Yours sincerely, 
Pankaj Walia.
