There is no doubt that we are producing a nation of cheaters, instead of honest people, because of a growing cheating culture in our education system. Though we have a poor education system, we did produce good human beings. Now students cheat fearlessly, with support from teachers and parents. The vigilance committees are set up but in vain, video clips showing large scale open book cheating shamed no one! This grim scenario does not bode well for our future. If we control this ‘cheating culture,’ teachers will be forced to teach regularly to get better grades for their students and schools. Teachers have always been morally and ethically held above others, it is a shame to see this noble profession demeaned by materialism.
