The issue of exam paper leaks continues to plague Raj Rishi Bhartrihari Matsya University, Alwar. On Monday, the Computer Science first-semester exam paper was leaked and went viral on Telegram and Instagram an hour before the exam, at around 11 AM.
According to sources, several students were members of these groups, and some had to pay up to ₹500 to gain access. Reports also indicate that papers for Zoology, Mathematics, Geography (Semester 3), and Hindi had also been leaked earlier.
Concerns Over Transparency
Matsya University claims to conduct examinations transparently, but the frequent leaks raise serious concerns about its credibility. The circulation of question papers on social media before exams is alarming and calls for immediate intervention by university authorities.
Key Facts:
- Students had to pay ₹500 to access leaked papers.
- Students from Kishangarh, Bansur, and Dehlawas were involved in these groups.
- Reports suggest students were notified to collect papers an hour before the exam.
- Last year, three exam papers were leaked, leading to re-examinations.
Persistent Issues in Matsya University Exams
Despite previous irregularities in exams, the university has not taken strict action, leading to recurring problems.
| Year | Irregularities |
|---|---|
| 2024 | Geography paper distribution error. |
| 2024 | Computer Science exam was given in English to Hindi-medium students. |
| 2024 | OMR sheets with 120 questions were distributed instead of 100. |
University Orders Investigation, FIR to be Filed
University Registrar Lokesh Meena has confirmed an official investigation into the matter. He stated:
“A thorough inquiry will be conducted, and strict action, including filing an FIR, will be taken against those responsible. The university is committed to maintaining exam integrity.”
Conclusion
Paper leaks significantly undermine the education system. While hardworking students put in dedicated efforts to succeed, unethical practices such as these disrupt fairness. Authorities must take strict measures to prevent such incidents and ensure a transparent and credible examination system in the future.
