Haryana Education Minister Ram Bilas Sharma on Sunday directed the State Director General of Police to investigate the matter of paper leak of Haryana Teachers Eligibility Test (HTET) level-3.
He said that the guilty would not be spared.
The Education Minister has also asked the Additional Chief Secretary, Education, Kesani Anand Arora to look into the matter. He said that he would soon call a meeting of senior officers of Education Department after coming back from his China visit.
The level three exam of HTET was cancelled on Saturday after police arrested three persons from near an examination centre in Jind on suspicion of leaking answer keys of the paper.
As many as 1.37 lakh candidates had appeared in the exam held at 430 examination centres across the state conducted by the School Board of Education, Haryana (SBEH).
This is the fourth instance of a question paper leak in Haryana in the past six months. Earlier, the question paper and answer keys of All India Pre-medical Test (AIPMT), selection exam of junior basic training (JBT) teachers of the Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan (KWS) and Centre's Staff Selection Commission test were leaked.
