The government is moving to reform its education sector with stricter laws, digital oversight, and new grading systems, aiming to root out corruption and ensure fair evaluation in public examinations. The Public Examinations (Offences) Act 1980 will be revised to facilitate transparency and accountability, Education Minister ANM Ehsanul Hoque Milon said on Tuesday. The minister also hinted at conducting this year’s SSC exams in uniform question papers and changes to the grading system. Requesting teachers to do their job properly and with utmost earnestness, the Chandpur-1 MP, however, complained of major negligence in the evaluation of exam papers. Later, I checked his exam papers on my own and found that the inner pages had been altered,” the minister said.
