EDUCATION is the fundamental right of every citizen but institutions that are supposed to impart education are infested with corruption. Cheating at examinations is rampant in Sindh and Balochistan. Parents and even teachers are invoved in helping their students to cheat.

The standard of education in Sindh has gone down over the years because of cheating. If cheating is not eradicated, a robust society will not be developed.

I urge Sindh Education Minister Jam Mehtab Hussain Dahar to take notice of this menace, because high school and Intermediate examinations are about to start.
