Bengaluru: Several students and their parents have launched protests across Karnataka after class 12 Chemistry papers were leaked once again. The move forced the board to postpone the pre-university course examination for the second time in last 10 days.
Last week, the Chemistry exam was postponed as the papers were leaked and the Board found out about it only after the exams were conducted on March 21.
Over 1.4 lakh students have been affected with the development. The students appearing for the common entrance test have been especially affected as their regular examinations are still incomplete.
Angry students and parents are protesting against the board and demanding dismissal of Education Minister K Ratnakar. Some MLAs from the ruling Congress party have also joined the protests.
The preliminary inquiry into the first case of paper leak had revealed that it was leaked near an examination centre in a women's college at Ballari, about 330 km from Bengaluru, and at a state-run college at Malur in Kolar district, 50 km.
The PUC exams in the state, equivalent to second year intermediate course or 12th class in central schools began on March 11 across the state, with 6.5 lakh students appearing in this academic year.
