Paper leak rumours haunt SSLC students

April 3, 2012

pepar_leakBangalore, April 3: First, the II PU?students endured it. On Monday, it was the turn of SSLC students as rumours of question paper leak flew thick and fast.


Anxious students arrived at the examination centres for the First Language paper with doubts in their minds about the fate of their examination. Fearing that the rumours of paper leak may be confirmed just the way it happened in the II?PU exams, SSLC students said they struggled to focus on their exam on the first day.

Many students feared that the exam time-table would be changed, following the ‘paper leak’. Their anxieties and fears, however, vanished into thin air as the examination went off without any hassles.

If the negation of the rumours relieved the students a bit, further relief was provided by an easy paper. Exams in Kannada, Telugu, Hindi, Marathi, Tamil, Urdu, English, and Sanskrit were held on Monday. Aishwarya, a student of St Aloysius School, said she enjoyed writing the exam as few questions had been twisted to test their understanding.

John Samuel of CF Andrews School is confident that he would score at least 80 marks out of 125. “Questions had appeared from the textbook. If one had put sincere efforts for the exam, it was an easy paper,” he said.

Many students said they were happy with the security measures in the examination halls as there was hardly any scope for teachers to help the examinees copy. The squads were vigilant too.

The strict security measures, however, did not deter some students from indulging in malpractices. As many as 33 examinees were debarred for copying across the State.

Eighteen students were caught copying in Kolar district, whereas Bijapur accounted for the debarment of 10 students. Gulbarga accounted for three debarments and Hassan and Chikkaballapur one each.

Indian Economics (only for blind students), Elements of Electronics Engineering, Elements of Computer Science, Elements of Engineering and Engineering Drawing papers (only for Junior Technical School students) will be held on Tuesday.
