Patna, Mar 1 (IBNS) In a strange move, candidates appearing for Army recruitment exam in Bihar were stripped down to their underwear before they were allowed to partake in it, according to media reports and TV footage.
The Indian Express reported that around 1,150 students who undertook the test on Sunday in Bihar's Muzaffarpur were stripped down in order to save time frisking an individual.
Several candidates have voiced their dislike towards such a process, terming it undignified.
Meanwhile, the state's reputation in cases of cheating is quite strong.
