NEW DELHI: Panic gripped students of class XII following claims on social media that the economics paper was leaked today ahead of the exam even as CBSE denied there was any slip up.
Reports of the question paper being leaked circulated through social media and WhatsApp several hours before the paper commenced .
The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), however, denied any leak and urged students and parents not to panic.
“We have checked with all examination centres and the paper was not leaked. The source of the circulation of this information is not known yet. We want to urge the students and parents to not panic and assure them that the board is doing its best to ensure sanctity of the examination,” a senior CBSE official said. (AGENCIES)
