Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini on Sunday said that the Central Government is set to introduce an even stricter legal framework to curb offences such as paper leaks and cheating in public examinations. He said this will be a significant step towards protecting the hard work, aspirations and future of crores of young people across the country.
In a statement, the Chief Minister further said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi takes decisions with the future of the nation in mind and accords the highest priority to the welfare and interests of the youth. Strengthening the legal framework against examination-related malpractices reflects the Government’s unwavering commitment to safeguarding the interests of honest and deserving candidates, he said.
Saini asserted that the paper leak mafia, cheating syndicates and those who jeopardise the future of the youth will not be spared under any circumstances. He said the Government is determined to take every necessary step against those who undermine the hard work and aspirations of young people.
Highlighting Haryana’s commitment to transparency in recruitment, the Chief Minister said that the State Government has already translated its promise of Bina Parchi, Bina Kharchi into reality by establishing a transparent and merit-based recruitment system. Today, deserving candidates are securing government jobs purely on the basis of merit, without any recommendation or corruption, he added.
The Chief Minister said that the interests of the youth will always remain paramount. The Government will continue to take every necessary measure to ensure that the examination system remains transparent, fair and credible, he said.
Taking a swipe at the Opposition, the Chief Minister said it has consistently misled the nation on every important issue. In contrast, the present Government remains fully committed to protecting the future of the country’s youth and strengthening the integrity of the examination system.
Expressing confidence in the proposed legal reforms, Saini said that the stricter legal provisions will further enhance transparency, fairness and credibility in public examinations while safeguarding the future of millions of young aspirants.
