A recent case in Karnataka has raised concerns about the validity of examinations and the potential for manipulation in the state’s education system. Prabhu Laxmikanth Lokare, a 23-year-old peon at a local court, secured an astonishing 99.7% in his Class 10 board exams. However, a startling revelation – Lokare allegedly cannot read or write – has ignited an investigation into his academic credentials. Lokare’s impressive score played a pivotal role in securing his peon position at the Koppal district court. He cleared the recruitment exam based solely on his high marks. However, discrepancies emerged when a judge noticed difficulties in his reading and writing, leading to a private complaint and police investigation.
