Madhyamik question papers found on social media

Kolkata: Question papers of Madhyamik Examination were reportedly leaked on the social media for the sixth consecutive day on Tuesday, shortly after the tests commenced. As was the case in the past five days, images of the physical science question paper were found to be circulated on WhatsApp, drawing sharp criticism from opposition parties in West Bengal. Madhyamik, the Class 10 school leaving examination, is conducted by the West Bengal Board of Secondary Education (WBBSE). “For 6 consecutive days, #question leaked in Madhyamik examination. Never happened in #WB. A devastating situation. A destroyed education scenario,” CPI(M) MLA Sujan Chakraborty said in a tweet. “Stop tall talks. Feel ashamed @MamataOfficial,” he added. WBBSE president Kalyanmoy Ganguly refused to comment on the controversy when contacted on Tuesday. West Bengal Education Minister Partha Chatterjee had on Monday sought a report on the ongoing investigation by the WBBSE over the allegations of question paper leak. (PTI)
