Used to handover books to students during exams: Lalu

Patna, Mar 23 (IBNS): Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) Chief Lalu Prasad Yadav has sparked a row after he said he used to hand out text books to students during exams to copy from in order to make them pass.

This comes in the wake of the images of students blatantly cheating in Class 10 exams in Bihar, which drew international attention.

Photos of men clambering up the walls of an exam centre was made public.

The students' kins were seen passing on cheats to them.

"The current government says it can't control cheating... (during my time as Chief Minister) I used to hand out books to everyone and said 'fine, write from the books.'  Do you think they managed?  They kept on writing and three hours passed by and most of them failed anyway," Yadav said.

After the media has made these photos public, the administration in Bihar has taken serious note of the incident.
