Collector slaps student during exam in MP's Bhind; says his 'strictness' busted mass copying racket
The collector of Madhya Pradesh's Bhind district was caught on camera slapping a student appearing for an examination at a local college, an action he claimed busted a mass copying racket operating at the centre. A purported video of the incident that took place on April 1 surfaced on social media on Saturday (July 13, 2025), in which Bhind Collector Sanjeev Shrivastava can be seen slapping a student multiple times at an exam centre. Talking to PTI on Sunday (July 13, 2025), Mr. Shrivastava said that his strict grilling of the boy had busted a mass copying racket. 'The incident occurred in March or April after I got a complaint about mass copying in an examination conducted by the Jiwaji University. We received information about Deendayal Danroliya College. When we reached there, everything was in order. But this boy only had the answer sheet. When I became strict with him, he spilt the beans that two maths teachers were solving the question paper outside (the centre) and will return it for mass dictation (mass copying),' the collector claimed. About slapping the boy, he said, 'That only unmasked the copying racket. The boy was initially giving evasive replies about the question paper.' The video shows the collector questioning a student inside the examination centre, and when the latter failed to respond, he was seen slapping him multiple times. The student, Rohit Rathore, was later barred from appearing for the exam and accused of sending his BSc physics question paper outside the centre to get it solved and returned. After the video went viral on social media, local reporters approached Mr. Rathore, who claimed that he had gone to the toilet during the exam and returned to find his question paper missing. 'The collector arrived suddenly and slapped me without asking anything. My ear hurt, and I wasn't given a chance to explain,' he alleged and said that a cheating case was filed against him. The collector said he wrote to Jiwaji University, Gwalior to scrap recognition of the exam centre, which is why the college management leaked their CCTV footage. 'The college belongs to the father-in-law of the deputy leader of the opposition (in the M.P. Assembly) Hemant Katare,' Mr. Shrivastava said. Meanwhile, the Samajwadi Party national spokesman, Yash Bhartiya, demanded an inquiry and strict action against the collector. Taking to X, Mr. Bhartiya said, 'Six days ago, the Gwalior bench of the Madhya Pradesh High Court, while hearing a case related to the Public Works Department, commented on Srivastava's conduct, stating, 'the chief secretary must decide whether such an officer should continue to serve in the field.' Posting a video clip of the incident, he called the IAS officer violent. Tehsildar Mala Sharma, posted in Bhind, recently accused Srivastava and Sub Divisional Magistrate (SDM) Parag Jain of mental harassment, the SP leader wrote.

BCA, BSc maths prove difficult to LU aspirants
Lucknow: The Undergraduate Entrance Test 2025 at Lucknow University proved to be a tough nut to crack for many candidates on Wednesday, especially those tackling the BCA and BSc mathematics papers which featured challenging questions. In the first shift, held from 10:30 am to 12noon, the BCA entrance test was conducted with 3,665 candidates registered and 75% attendance. Many students found the logical reasoning and advanced programming sections difficult. Ananya Singh, a BCA aspirant from Lucknow, said, "Reasoning questions have unusual patterns and were tricky. The programming section covered topics like loops and data structures that were quite difficult. Overall, it was tougher than I expected and I think more preparation on advanced concepts would have helped." The BSc mathematics entrance test was held in the second shift from 2:30 pm to 4 2,983 candidates were registered, only 75% turnout was reported. The paper focused on calculus and algebra, with several students pointing out that time management was a key challenge. Rajeev Tiwari, a BSc maths aspirant, said, "The calculus questions were quite long and required multiple steps which made them tricky and time-consuming. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Dukung Orang Terkasih Menghadapi Limfoma: Mulai Di Sini Limfoma Baca Undo Even though I had prepared well, I struggled to manage my time during the exam."

Job saturation, specialisation see demand for MSc nursing
Mangaluru: The saturating job opportunities in European countries and the need for higher studies and specialisation are resulting in increased interest in MSc courses in nursing in coastal districts . Nursing colleges are witnessing rise in admissions for MSc programmes. According to the colleges, they may see a 20% to 30% admission increase for the next batch. Previously, after completing GNM and BSc nursing courses, candidates worked bedside nursing in India or moved abroad. Merlin Sheeba Jinto, principal of Sahyadri College of Nursing, shared that earlier only a few colleges in the district offered MSc programmes in nursing, and hardly had any takers. "However, in recent years, the scenario has changed, and a lot of them go for specialisation by getting admitted to MSc courses," she pointed to another former nursing college principal, the reason for more admissions to MSc nursing programmes is job saturation or decreasing opportunities abroad. Jasmine D'Souza shared that MSc in nursing saw a boom when rules were relaxed in 2007, and demand gradually decreased after a few years. However, the demand started again in the last two years, with institutions witnessing a 25% to 30% admission increasing every year. The reason is that the UK, Ireland, and other countries, which recruited many nurses post-Covid, have reduced recruitment. Among Gulf countries, only a few offer a good salary package. Dr Elsa Sanatombi Devi, professor, department of medical surgical nursing, MCON, Manipal, added that though the opportunities abroad are now low, having an MSc degree gives an edge to pursue a PhD and get into research. MSc student Neha Maria B shared that she planned to go abroad post-BSc but stayed back to pursue PG. "I would want to get into bedside nursing with a higher post in any hospital," she a principal of a prominent nursing college in the city alleged unethical practices of nursing colleges offering MSc courses. "Some colleges award MSc degrees to candidates without them attending any classes or completing their required thesis. The candidates will be working full-time somewhere. This must be curbed for the quality of education," the principal alleged.
