Facing criticism for inaction against alleged question paper leak of Delhi University's School of Open Learning examination for five consecutive days, the varsity today said that it has asked the authorities concerned to get the matter investigated.
"The University has advised the Chairman of the Governing Body of School of Open Learning to get the matter, related with the alleged leak of its question papers on WhatsApp just before the commencement of the examination, investigated by the Crime Branch of Delhi Police so that the facts are established and the culprits are brought to book," Malay Neerav, Joint Dean of Students' Welfare and Media Coordinator, said.
However, he maintained that SOL is a separate identity altogether.
The question paper on Corporate Laws for Delhi University's School of Open Learning examination was allegedly leaked on June 2 through the internet messaging application WhatsApp for the fifth consecutive day, following which three persons were arrested in this connection.
Chairperson of the Campus of Open Learning and governing body of SOL, C S Dubey had earlier ruled out it to be a case of leak saying the paper could have been circulated on WhatsApp after the examination started. He also said that the matter will be throughly investigated.
