A university in Chhattisgarh has cancelled an examination after allegations that the question paper was leaked on social media platforms hours before the test was scheduled to begin. The move followed mounting pressure from students who protested against the security lapse, claiming that exam questions had been circulated online, compromising the integrity of the assessment.
Students alleged that the leaked materials appeared on various social media channels well before the examination commenced, giving some candidates an unfair advantage. The circulation of exam content prior to the scheduled test time raised serious concerns about examination security protocols at the institution.
University authorities have not yet announced a revised date for the rescheduled examination. The incident has triggered a review of the institutional mechanisms designed to safeguard the confidentiality of question papers and prevent such breaches in the future.
This development comes amid growing concerns about examination security across educational institutions in the region, with several universities facing similar allegations of question paper leaks in recent years. The cancellation represents a significant decision, as rescheduling examinations affects thousands of students and academic calendars.
