PTI, NEW DELHI: The Delhi Government today said that it has received complaints of class 12 CBSE accountancy paper being leaked following which a probe was ordered, even as the board denied any leak.
“Received complaints about the Class 12 CBSE Accountancy paper being leaked. Have asked officers of Directorate of Education (DoE) to investigate and lodge a complaint with CBSE,” Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia tweeted this morning.
“Swift action must be taken so that hard-working students don’t suffer due to negligence of CBSE,” he said.
The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) issued a statement denying any leak and said that it has approached the police against those spreading “false” news.
“There has been no leakage of the question paper. All the seals have been found intact at all exam centres. However, at local level, some miscreants may have circulated messages through WhatsApp and other social media platforms to hurt the sanctity of the exam,” the board said.
“The board has decided to take strict action against such activities. An FIR is being lodged,” it said.
