Parents see malpractice in Sainik School entrance test

Principal Manjit Jain denies the charge of paper leak

Some parents on Sunday complained of malpractice in the admission test to Sainik Schools at a private school in Belagavi. They said that the authorities of Jain Heritage School leaked question paper to some select parents and made an exclusive seating arrangement for some children to allow them to copy.

They also said that the school authorities allowed Shashidhar Kurer, senior KAS officer, inside the school premises after the examination began, despite knowing that his daughter was writing the test.

Vishwanath Patil, a parent, said that Mr. Kurer went inside after all other parents were sent out. “We also saw four students coming out of the examination hall, carrying question papers. This is in clear violation of the law,’’ he said.
