“Initial information suggested that the question paper had been leaked and was circulating on WhatsApp. This turned out to be incorrect during an investigation by the UPSTF,” said Dr Sudhir Singh, the KGMU spokesperson.

KGMU administration had received an email suggesting that the question paper of the exam, taken by 60,000 candidates, had been leaked.

“We immediately contacted the STF and it was found that 14 candidates took home the question paper from the centre number 5 at the Law Faculty block of Agra College. Acting swiftly, the paper was recovered. In the entire episode, there was no impact on the exam. No paper leak was proved,” added Dr Singh.
