Guwahati, July 26 (SocialNews.XYZ) Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Sunday welcomed Prime Minister Narendra Modi's decision to constitute a high-powered task force to strengthen the country's examination system, saying the initiative would reinforce transparency, integrity and merit in public examinations.
In a post on X, Sarma said, "I wholeheartedly welcome this excellent decision by Hon'ble Prime Minister Shri @narendramodi ji." The Chief Minister said a credible examination system rests on "transparency, integrity and the trust of our students" and stressed that achieving these goals requires honest introspection and a commitment to building a more robust and student-centric process.
Praising the appointment of Nandan Nilekani as the head of the task force, Sarma said there could be "no better person" to lead the initiative. "He has a rich experience of demonstrating how large-scale public systems can be made more leak-proof and citizen-centric," Sarma said.

"I am confident this initiative will further strengthen India's #ReformExpress and deliver a fair, merit-based and transparent process for our students," the Chief Minister said.
The Centre has constituted the high-powered task force following concerns over examination integrity in recent months, with the panel expected to recommend measures to make the country's examination system more secure, technology-driven and student-centric.
