Anti-copying law : Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami on Thursday approved promulgation of an ordinance to prevent use of unfair means in recruitment examinations in the state, making it a cognizable and non-bailable offence.
“Uttarakhand is going to make the country’s strictest anti-copying law with stringent provisions, including life imprisonment, for those found guilty of aiding cheating in recruitment examinations,” Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami has said.
युवाओं से किए गए वादे के अनुरूप हमारी सरकार ने देश का सबसे सख्त "नकल विरोधी कानून" लाने का फैसला किया है।
इस हेतु संबंधित अध्यादेश को मैंने अपनी अनुमति प्रदान कर अग्रेतर कार्यवाही के लिए भेज दिया है।
हम नकल माफिया को प्रदेश के युवाओं के भविष्य के साथ खिलवाड़ नही करने देंगे।
