The incident has received widespread attention after Indian television footage showed parents and friends of students scaling the outer walls of school buildings to pass cheat sheets to students inside taking exams. More than 1.4 million 10th graders are taking the tests at more than 1,200 high schools across the state. They face tremendous pressure because they must pass the exams to continue their education.

(AP Photo/Press Trust of India, File) INDIA OUT Teachers and state education department officials supervising the examination caught hundreds of students who had smuggled in text books or scraps of paper for cheating. "It's virtually impossible to conduct fair examinations without the cooperation of parents," said P.K. Shahi, Bihar's education minister. He said it was not possible to monitor the 6 million parents and others who accompany the students to the examination centers. State authorities posted police at all schools where examinations were being held, "but we can't use force to drive away the parents," he said. Nearly two dozen parents were detained after they were caught helping their children, but were released after several hours. On Friday, the high court in the state capital, Patna, ordered the Bihar police chief to ensure that examinations are conducted in a fair manner. State education authorities have canceled examinations held at four centers after they received reports of largescale cheating. Bihar School Examination Board Secretary Sriniwas Tiwari said students caught cheating could be barred from taking the exam for up to three years, ordered to pay a fine or even sent to jail. Cheating seems to be particularly widespread in Bihar, although there have been no reports of anyone being sent to jail for the offense. +1 Ads by Google Site Web Enter your search Like Daily Mail Follow @MailOnline Follow Daily Mail +1 Daily Mail DON'T MISS PICTURE EXCLUSIVE: Perrie Edwards leaves home with an overnight bag just hours after Zayn Malik arrives back in the UK... but her ring is still on PICTURE EXCLUSIVE: A sombre Zayn Malik arrives back in London to reunite with fiancee Perrie Edwards after quitting 1D world tour amid cheating claims Pregnant Fearne Cotton and husband Jesse Wood enjoy rare date night together ahead of new baby's arrival Baby no. 2 on the way!
