Protests Erupt Over Alleged Bihar Exam Paper Leak

Protests in Bihar have intensified following claims of a leaked exam paper, despite official denial. Political figures, including Prashant Kishor, back the aggrieved candidates, calling for a re-exam to ensure fairness. The situation adds tension amid the political landscape leading up to assembly polls.

A political uproar has emerged in Bihar amid allegations of a leaked examination paper, despite state officials maintaining the exam's integrity. Senior minister Vijay Kumar Chaudhary affirmed no evidence of such a breach has been found.

Authorities, including the Bihar Public Service Commission, have reiterated their stance, ordering re-tests for students affected at one disturbed exam center, while asserting no issues across the majority of testing sites. Yet, skepticism persists.

The controversy has intensified political discourse, with opposition parties rallying behind the protesters. Prominent leaders, including Prashant Kishor, advocate a fair re-examination process, amidst growing dissent against the state's ruling coalition.
