SSC paper leak: FIR lodge against student

This year we seem to be stumbling upon one question paper leak case after the other. It has come to light that an SSC candidate in Mumbai possessed the Algebra even before the exam began, according to a newspaper report.

According to the report, an FIR has been lodged against the student under sections 6 (possession of question paper before exam) and 7 (copying) of Maharashtra Prevention of Malpractice at University, Board and other Specified Examinations Act, 1982.

The student, during the investigation, alleged that two youths in Borivli gave him the question paper. An investigation is now carried on to make sure that the question paper was not distributed among other SSC students. In case such a situation comes to be true, the state board official will contemplate a re-examination for Algebra.

Recently, the case of CBSE Physics board exam question paper leak came to light. All sets of the CBSE Physics question papers were available for sale a day prior to the exam, held on March 5, in Imphal.

CBSE has now issued a notice on its official website calling students in Manipur for a re-examination. The notice reads as follows "Due to administrative reasons, it has been decided to cancel the examination in Physics for All India Senior School Certificate Examination, 2014 held in the centres situated in the State of Manipur. It has been decided to conduct re-examination of Physics in respect of all the centres of Manipur." The Physics re-examination will be now conducted on April 2, 2014 10:00 am to 1:30 pm
