According to Deputy Registrar L S Baghel, the university had initiated a novel scheme of reshuffle this year according to which students from most colleges were given centres in other colleges. This procedure helped reduce cheating cases, as students were no longer able to rely on help from their teachers and staff.

The university also changed examination papers at the last moment to avoid the chances of students attempting a paper having already leaked. For this purpose four sets of papers had been printed instead of the usual three.

Meanwhile, continuing this practice the papers of B Com final Indirect Tax and M Com-Previous statistical analysis were changed today.

The number of cheating cases officially available with the university stands at 135 with the most notorious college in this matter GACC maintaining the lead with 44 cases. Old GDC with 10 cases comes second and is followed by Gujarati Commerce with seven and Dhar and MB Khalsa each having six cases. Swati Jain and SN-Khandwa have five each and Mandleshwar, four.
