Mao Zhou Deng of China had once said, If anyone wants a nation destroyed, he needs not drop any bombs on it. Just let the education system of that nation rot, the nation would be destroyed with it. The education system of interior Sindh is rotting because of the cheating culture that is endemic to all exams. Cheating in exams, in many parts of Sindh, goes on in broad daylight. Many a student having degrees on their resumes are unable to get jobs because of not having any grip over the subjects they are supposed to have studied for these degrees. They, naturally, blame every successive government for not providing them with jobs. Once in an interview, I was asked the question why invigilators of the colleges of interior Sindh allow such a free hand on cheating in the exams? I told the interviewer that this is the system in the Interior and no student can clear the exam with out becoming a part of this 'system. In a seminar conducted by FPSC Islamabad in Sukkur under aegis of the IBA, a member of the FPSC said that many seats of the CSS cadres of Sindh province go vacant as majority of candidates from the Interior fail in the papers of English Essay & Composition. -RASHEED AHMED MIRANI, Sukkur, October 23.
