Out of the frame: No credit for photographer who captured Bihar exam cheats!

Firstpost  

Last week, a large-scale examination cheating scam was exposed in Khagriya and Hajipur in Bihar when friends and family of Class 10 students taking the Bihar board exams were caught climbing school building walls to pass chits to students inside. The incident would have gone unnoticed had it not been for Rajesh Kumar, a local photojournalist who captured people literally climbing the walls of a school. Little may have Kumar expected from the image he clicked, but his photo ended up being reported by foreign news agencies and in turn had the Patna High Court pull up the Nitish Kumar-led Bihar government. A day after being reprimanded by the Patna High Court, the Bihar government enforced a crackdown and apprehended over 900 people, including policemen, students and parents, from different exam centres in the state, PTI reported.
