"This has happened to me at least thrice during my paper correction days! To colleagues too even 20 years ago. The money is usually accompanied by a sad story narration instead of answers to exam questions. Needless to say, such students usually fail," commented one user on the post.
"It tells about the rot in the society as a whole," wrote another user.
"These students see so much news of bribery in media,about repeat offenders & stories how "cash" works in so many Govt. Offices.....! Stories of how work gets done in exchange of cash......etc. This creates confidence in the system of bribery & its effectiveness !," wrote a third.
"They should debarr such students and set an example. Kudos to the teacher...," wrote a fourth.
