leaked exam papers

- Telegram was used to circulate a leaked UGC-NET exam paper, with people offering to sell it for Rs 5,000 to Rs 15,000. - The Central government cancelled the exam due to concerns of compromised integrity, with the education minister confirming the paper was leaked on Telegram. - Telegram's popularity in India, especially during the Covid-19 pandemic, allowed for easy access to resources and study materials for exams. - The app's anonymity features attract both genuine aspirants and those seeking to misuse it, such as offering to modify answer sheets for a fee. - Telegram's group size limit of up to 2 lakh members makes it a platform where leaks are likely to occur, with some fraudsters taking advantage of the situation to defraud aspirants.
