That talking is ‘not considered cheating’, so discussing answers is a safer bet than incriminating cheat-sheets is certainly a worthwhile revelation.
The internet is rife with detailed advice from all over the world on how to cheat in tests, so it is unusual that a principal in Mau in Uttar Pradesh took it upon himself to save his students the trouble of surfing the internet by personally offering advice on the finer points of cogging. Indeed, his insights into the mind of supervisors on the eve of higher secondary examinations in the state were particularly enlightening. In fact, his advice to examinees to slip a hundred-rupee note into answer booklets for a favourable outcome was a vital pointer to the plight of the poorly remunerated teachers who correct and grade papers. Hopefully, the relevant authorities in Uttar Pradesh and elsewhere have taken note of this as well as the other nuances of the Indian Cheating Code that he revealed.
But for his well-intentioned tips, neophyte cheaters would never have known that asking for an extra slap from an indignant invigilator could get even those caught red-handed off the hook. That talking is ‘not considered cheating’, so discussing answers is a safer bet than incriminating cheat-sheets is certainly a worthwhile revelation. Best of all, he obviously hoped that his pep-talk would inculcate ‘esprit de corps’ among the students so that they would all cheat in an atmosphere of mutual cooperation for the greater glory of the school.

Taking home the biggest award of the night was former cricketer, Krishnamachari Srikkanth, who was felicitated with the Colonel C.K.Nayudu Lifetime Achievement Award. Srikkanth shared the stage with BCCI Chief Sourav Ganguly and BCCI Secretary Jay Shah.
However, one of the highlights of the evening was former cricketer Virendar Sehwag’s A-level humour which stole the show at the awards. Our very own ‘Viru’ delivered the seventh Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi lecture at the BCCI awards. The lecture was established to honour former captain of the Indian cricket team Tiger Pataudi.
Commenting on the ICC’s plan to revamp Test cricket by shortening it to four days, Sehwag said, “Chaar din ki chandni hoti hai, Test match nahi...Jal ki machli jal main hi acchi hai, bahar nikaloge toh mar jaegi (Test matches aren’t meant to last 4 days. A fish is better suited for water. It will die if taken out of its habitat).”
Taking a strong stand against ICC’s move, Sehwag, in his usual style, said, "...Test cricket ko chanda mama ke pass le jaa sakte hai. (We can take Test cricket to the moon). We can have Day-Night Test cricket. If there is a day-night Test, maybe people will come to watch game after office. Innovations should happen but within the five days. It should not be shortened" he asserted.
