The Madhya Pradesh government and High Court plan to set up four special fast-track courts in Bhopal, Indore, Gwalior and Jabalpur to swiftly try cases related to cheating and paper leaks in competitive and board exams. This initiative makes the state the first in India to have such courts dedicated to addressing examination malpractice.
These specialized courts will ensure trials conclude within three months of charge sheets being filed. Special Investigation Teams, including flying squads, will aid in preventing cheating, while special public prosecutors will handle cases. A Special Investigation Team (SIT) has been formed under the district Superintendent of Police's guidance.
Each fast-track court will operate within a specific territorial jurisdiction: Bhopal for Bhopal and surrounding districts, Indore for Indore and nearby areas, Gwalior for Gwalior and adjacent districts, and Jabalpur for Jabalpur and its region. By focusing on efficient justice delivery, the state aims to deter and swiftly deal with academic dishonesty in examinations.
