Allegations Surface: Were NIOS Students Asked to Pay ₹1,000 to Pass Exams?

The claims have led to demands for an investigation, but NIOS has not yet made an official statement.

Students Say They Paid To Pass
In the video being shared on social media, a few students alleged that they were asked to pay ₹1,000 each to pass their NIOS examinations. 

The allegations say those who refused were either failed or given lower marks. 

The allegations have led to questions about transparency in the exam process among students and parents.

Video goes viral, calls for probe mount
The video has attracted a lot of attention online. Many users are demanding a fair investigation into the matter and pushing authorities to investigate the conduct of examinations.

As the video circulated across platforms with calls for accountability, one comment said: “Education should not be for sale.”

NIOS Yet To Reply
No official statement has been issued by the National Institute of Open Schooling so far in relation to the allegations. 

There’s also no confirmed proof that cash was solicited to pass the exams. The claims are, at this stage, allegations. 

Call For Fair Investigation
Students and concerned citizens have demanded an impartial inquiry to get at the facts. They also asked NIOS to ensure strict monitoring and fairness in future examinations.

Authorities and education experts have called on people not to jump to conclusions based on the viral video until an official probe is completed.

The controversy has once again shone a light on exam integrity and how fast unverified claims can go viral online.
