AIEEE! Leak of question paper delays examination

HYDERABAD: The All India Engineering Entrance Examination (AIEEE) question paper was leaked on Saturday night in Uttar Pradesh, following which the exam was delayed by three hours on Sunday.

The Special Task Force in Uttar Pradesh arrested one person in connection with the leak and is looking for further leads. “We are trying to trace two people who leaked the paper. We have the paper with us since Saturday night. It was being sold for `6 lakh,“ said Mr Vijay Prakash of STF.

While officials of the Central Board of Secondary Education, which conducts AIEEE, claimed that the question paper leak had been traced to Bihar and Kanpur till now, some city students, parents and coaching centres claimed that they had been receiving anonymous calls since Saturday offering to sell AIEEE question papers for ` 10 lakh to `40 lakh.

Some students and parents demanded the government to inquire into the issue to ascertain the facts while pointing out that two major rackets involving question paper leaks were busted in the city since June last year. claims trace Though CBSE claimed that the question paper leak had been traced to Bihar and Kanpur till now, city students claimed they had received calls offer ing to sell AIEEE ques tion papers. Students and par ents demanded the government to inquire into the issue to ascertain the facts.

In June last year, the city unit of the Central Bureau of Investigation had busted a major racket regarding leaking the Railways Recruitment Board question paper. The CBI had arrested Vivek Bharadwaj, son of Mumbai Railway Recruitment Board chairman, S.M. Sharma and seized lakhs of rupees of cash from them.

A large number of students appear for the AIEEE exam from Hyderabad. It stands next only to Delhi in the country. While nearly 60,000 students appeared from Delhi for AIEEE this year, about 45,000 were from Hyderabad.

“Going by the huge response for AIEEE from students of Hyderabad, there are chances that scamsters might eye the city to supply the leaked papers.

The issue has to be thoroughly investigated. We will request the state government to order the police department or any investigating agency to inquire into the complaints of AIEEE paper leaks in the city,” said a senior official of the higher education department.
