Stay away from corruption: CBSE tells students

In an innovative way to reach out to its students, the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has uploaded a video message on its website urging students to refrain from corrupt practices in their academic and personal lives. The web message was CBSE’s effort as part of the Vigilance Awareness Week which was observed from October 28 to November 2. In the video message CBSE’s central vigilance officer Pradeep Kumar addresses the students and teachers.  He requests the teachers to take the lead in keeping students away from corrupt practices. “Every child is born with a clean slate with no mindsets. Hence, teachers have a crucial role to play to ensure that the right moral values are inculcated in children,” he said.
