'Madhya Pradesh Board's 'XII Class' 'Maths' Paper Leaked'

By Sufia Razzak | Bhopal

BREAKING NEWS After CBSE Physics paper leaked earlier this month, class XII Maths paper of MP Board of Secondary Education leaked in several places including Gwalior and Vidisha districts.

MPBSE has initiated an investigation into the matter and the school education minister, Paras Jain has directed that an FIR be lodged against those found guilty.

According to the reports, paper first leaked in Gwalior. It was also found to be retailed in Vidisha for anywhere between Rs. 700-Rs 300.
Students who were in the examination hall were told to stop midway when reports of the leak surfaced at 8.15 AM. When the exam paper was matched with the leaked paper, fifty percent of the paper was found to be the same. Chaos prevailed in many schools where students milled about in uncertainty stressed.

According to the reports the exam has been rescheduled twice since morning by MPBSE. It was slated for April 7 initially which was later scrapped as PET exams would be a held on April 6, which would have cause inconvenience to the students.

After this, April 9 was decided on to conduct the exam for the students, that too was unfeasible as April 10 is a polling day for many areas in the state and teachers who are on poll duty would have to leave for those areas a couple of days in advance.

Finally April 12 has been scheduled for the re-examination of the leaked Class XII Maths paper.

Earlier this month class XII Physics paper of CBSE was leaked on March 4, just a day before the examination. The paper was also available on social networking website Facebook on March 5 before 6 am. The paper was made available for download on kanglaonline.com on March 4, 2014.

Thus, students had requested to conduct all India re-examination of class XII physics of Central Board of Secondary Education. Though, the leaked question paper did not affect students of any other states appearing for the exam. The leaked question paper were only for Manipur region as CBSE conducts examinations with different sets of question papers for different regions.
