BJP Ex-MP Links Poor UP Election Results To Paper Leak, Urges Reform

Former BJP MP Subrat Pathak from Kannauj attributed the paper leak as a significant factor contributing to BJP’s electoral setbacks in Uttar Pradesh during the Lok Sabha elections. Pathak, who lost to Samajwadi Party Chief Akhilesh Yadav in Kannauj, expressed his views on the matter through a series of posts on social media platform X.

Endemic Issue Of Paper Leaks In India

Acknowledging the endemic issue of paper leaks in India and the corruption that has permeated the education system, Pathak underscored the efforts made by BJP governments at both state and central levels to rectify these issues. He criticized political parties that, in his opinion, shield the corrupt education system while simultaneously criticizing instances of paper leaks.

Pathak emphasized that addressing the paper leak menace requires not only strong political resolve but also cooperation from opposition parties. He highlighted the longstanding prevalence of paper leaks in various examinations nationwide, including recent incidents in police recruitment in Uttar Pradesh.

According to Pathak, Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s administration has already enacted stringent legislation aimed at curbing such malpractices. Nevertheless, he questioned the persistence of these incidents and the apparent helplessness of the system in preventing them.

Pathak attributed the root cause of corruption in the education system to the legacy left by British colonial rule, which he claimed has deeply embedded corruption into Indian society. He lamented that this corruption has tarnished the education system, adversely affecting students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds.

He pointed out that while cheating in school exams has become normalized and college admissions can be secured through monetary means, competitive and recruitment exams often resort to paper leaks as an unfair advantage.

Overall, Pathak’s remarks underscored his concerns about systemic corruption in education and called for collective efforts to combat this pervasive issue affecting the country’s youth and future.
