HSC paper leaks, enquiry underway
92.80% students who appeared for the Book Keeping and Accountancy exam have passed. This figure is significant because on March 10, the Book keeping and Accountancy paper was leaked through WhatsApp half an hour before the exam began. This led the Mumbai division of the Maharashtra State Board of Secondary and Higher Secondary Education to file a complaint with the Navi Mumbai police. Within a fortnight a crime branch team managed to trace the messages to a teacher and a trustee of a school in Malad. They were arrested soon after, and released on bail. Since then there has been no progress on the case. "Our duty ends once the criminal is out on bail, now the lawyers and the court will handle it till it comes back under police jurisdiction," said Pratibha Shenge, Police Inspector, Cyber Crime, Navi Mumbai.
Despite the leak, the board decided to go ahead with the examination and correction process. "We have decided not to have a retest as there was not much time for students to circulate the leaked paper, given that all centres have students within the exam hall half an hour before the exam starts. There is hardly a chance for the paper to have been leaked. But, we will initiate further action only after the police completes their enquiry process. We are waiting for a go-ahead from the police," said Laxmikant Pande, Chairman of the board.
