India’s high-stakes entrance exams are in turmoil after a wave of protests and tragic student suicides tied to exam leaks, forcing the education minister to resign. Prime Minister Modi is now turning to tech experts like Nandan Nilekani to overhaul the National Testing Agency, pushing for a full digital shift to combat leaks and fraud. The plan includes AI-powered exam halls and air-gapped networks to make cheating nearly impossible — but experts warn that true security lies in the integrity of human examiners and invigilators. Even with digital exams, fears remain about technical failures, digital divides, and the enduring pressure of a single, make-or-break test. The real test? Can the system rebuild trust before the next exam season hits.
