Chhattisgarh Paper Leak Row: IGKV BSc Agriculture Entomology Exam Cancelled After Viral Paper Shows 70% Similar Questions, Probe Ordered | Video

The Indira Gandhi Krishi Vishwavidyalaya (IGKV) in Raipur, Chhattisgarh, cancelled the examination for the BSc (Agriculture) second-year Entomology subject due to concerns of a question paper leak. The university received an email expressing alarm about the alleged leak at around 9 am, just before the exam was set to begin at 10 am.

A circular was issued to the university's 33 affiliated colleges cancelling the examination, citing administrative reasons. The cancellation has been met with criticism from the opposition Congress party, which called the incident a serious concern and demanded a thorough investigation.
