PATNA, India (AP) — About 600 high school students in eastern India have been expelled forcheating on pressurepacked 10th grade examinations this week, education authorities said Friday.
The incident has received widespread attention after Indian television footage showed parents andfriends of students scaling the outer walls of school buildings to pass cheat sheets to students insidetaking exams.
More than 1.4 million 10th graders are taking the tests at more than 1,200 high schools across thestate. They face tremendous pressure because they must pass the exams to continue theireducation.

Teachers and state education department officials supervising the examination caught hundreds ofstudents 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 andothers who accompany the students to the examination centers.
State authorities posted police at all schools where examinations were being held, "but we can't useforce to drive away the parents," he said.
Nearly two dozen parents were detained after they were caught helping their children, but werereleased after several hours.
On Friday, the high court in the state capital, Patna, ordered the Bihar police chief to ensure thatexaminations are conducted in a fair manner.
State education authorities have canceled examinations held at four centers after they receivedreports of largescale cheating.
Bihar School Examination Board Secretary Sriniwas Tiwari said students caught cheating could bebarred 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 ofanyone being sent to jail for the offense.
