The L.N Mithila University has cancelled the B.Sc third year examinations after a video went viral of mass cheating in a women's college in Bihar's Samastipur.

The examinations will now be held at CM Science College, Darbhanga, on June 29.

According to reports, the students sat packed tightly on the ground, some in the corridors or wherever else they could find space, with the hall unable to accommodate any more people. Pages torn out of books and even whole books and mobile phones were on display as the students used them liberally to cheat.

In March, a similar incident happened when family members of the students appearing for their class 10 board exams were caught over the school building wall passing chits and assisting their wards in the exam hall.
