President Droupadi Murmu announced on Friday that the government is implementing comprehensive reforms to make public examinations more transparent, secure, and trustworthy for students.
The address, broadcast on Akashvani and Doordarshan, preceded Prime Minister Narendra Modi's scheduled Independence Day speech from the Red Fort on August 15.
These measures aim to curb unfair practices in exams, marking a significant policy shift ahead of the 80th Independence Day celebrations commemorating India's 1947 freedom.
