Govt panel says SSC questions leaked

Recommends test retaking


Monday, 19 February 2018


The education ministry says it has found that the questions of the SSC and equivalent exams leaked, reports bdnews24.com.
A ministry panel headed by Technical and Madrasa Education Secretary Md Alamgir studied the alleged leaks and recommends retaking those tests.
Speaking to the media in his offices on Sunday, Alamgir said the questions of a subject completely leaked and several others partially.
Despite adopting a series of measures, the government has failed to plug question leaks in public exams.
Following leaks of question papers of eighth and fifth graders last year, the education ministry took several steps, including making it mandatory for students to enter the centres half an hour before the tests and arrest anyone carrying a smartphone within 200 metres of exam halls.
But all efforts failed as questions of almost every subject of this year's SSC exams leaked on the social media hours before the tests.
