HYDERABAD, Oct 18: President of Sindh University Teachers Association (SUTA) Dr Azhar Ali Shah has said that he has been receiving complaints with evidence that majority of candidates are found involved in cheating in annual examinations of BA/BSc/MA in colleges affiliated with the university.

In a statement issued here on Thursday, he said the standard of question papers was ridiculous. Everyone who bought a decades-old-guide book could easily find answers.

The irony was that candidates were using these guides openly in examination centres “with patronage of college administrations, invigilators and university externals,” he observed, and claimed that the SU administration avoided stopping this practice because it feared drop in number of admissions.
