However, he expressed concern over students' lack of focus and their reluctance to sit for exams, urging educators to prepare for the challenges ahead.
The Minister also unveiled a series of strategic changes aimed at modernizing the education system. He announced plans to amend the 1940 Act to introduce 'random sampling' for evaluating answer scripts to ensure transparency and consistency among examiners. Additionally, he emphasized that students should not be required to re-enroll in the same institution every year, stating that a single registration is sufficient. To curb the influence of coaching centers, he prohibited teachers from teaching in outside facilities and mandated that all schools and exam centers be brought under CCTV surveillance.
