About — Public Examinations (Prevention of Unfair Means) Amendment Bill, 2026
The Bill amends the 2020 Act governing conduct of public examinations to broaden the definition of unfair means and introduce electronic monitoring. It is significant because it empowers authorities to sanction candidates and institutions for digital cheating, aiming to preserve credibility of merit‑based selection. For example, it authorises the use of AI‑driven plagiarism detection on answer scripts submitted online.
