It is alleged that question papers of 12 out of the 15 exams held so far have leaked online, and that they are selling for as low as Rs 299 on social media sites.
As nearly 20 lakh students take the Class 10 and 12 board exams in Madhya Pradesh, reports claiming multiple question paper leaks have raised tough questions for the government and demoralised students working hard to achieve their ambitions.
It is alleged that question papers of 12 out of the 15 exams held so far have leaked online, and that they are selling for as low as Rs 299 on social media sites.
The state government has denied the paper leak allegations. But 35 people, including teachers and non-teaching staff, have been arrested for alleged mishandling of question papers.
In one of the cases, the English question paper for Class 12 students leaked at a government school in Dhar last week. The district administration intervened and teachers and the school clerk were arrested. Collector Priyank Mishra said, "We went to Kanya High School Nalcha and traced the question paper that was being circulated on social media. It matched with the question paper scanned from this centre."
