IIT Madras Director Emphasizes Integrity Over Tech in Exam Reforms

IIT Madras Director V. Kamakoti has stated that human integrity, rather than just technological solutions, is the primary factor in preventing exam paper leaks.

He suggested that implementing multiple sessions for national exams, similar to the JEE model, could help reduce the pressure and risks associated with single-day high-stakes testing.

The comments come as the government forms a high-powered task force, led by Nandan Nilekani, to overhaul the national examination system and restore public trust.
