School students were forced to wear cardboard cartons on their heads during an exam, apparently to stop them from cheating in the test in the Indian state of Karnataka.

As per reports, the pictures of the students wearing the cartons over their heads went viral on social media and people wanted the Indian government to take notice. The exams were mid-terms, and teachers were seen monitoring students.

“This is unacceptable. Nobody has any right to treat anybody more so students like animals. This perversion will be dealt with aptly,” a provincial minister said of the incident.
