Nandan Nilekani Proposes AI-Generated Exam Papers and Expanded Computer-Based Testing to Prevent LeaksPreviousNext

Infosys co-founder Nandan Nilekani, heading a government task force on exam reforms, proposed using artificial intelligence to generate question papers on exam day from a large question bank to prevent leaks and fraud. He also advocated expanding computer-based testing nationwide to improve exam security and accessibility. These suggestions follow widespread protests and the resignation of the former Education Minister after the NEET paper leak. Prime Minister Narendra Modi supports implementing these systemic reforms to restore confidence in India's examination system.
