The Devi Ahilya Vishwavidyalaya (DAVV) took immediate steps on Monday to enhance its exam confidentiality, following the arrest of a professor from Radiant Institute of Management and Science in BCom paper leak case.
The varsity made it mandatory for colleges to open question papers in front of CCTV cameras and share video recordings of the same with the university. Moreover, the colleges will also have to keep video recordings saved for any kind of requirement in future.
The professor, Bhuvanesh Singh Pawar, had allegedly obtained two BCom question papers of exams held in May and passed them on to some students. Accessing chat history on Whatsapp and Telegram, the police joined the dots and reached Pawar.
Once the varsity probe committee confirmed the leaks, the university administration cancelled the papers of both the subjects and lodged an FIR with the police. The exams for Business Regulatory Framework and Business Organisation and Communication subjects have been now been rescheduled for July 7 and July 10 respectively.
DAVV announced that it would make a list of sensitive centres whose names feature into paper leak related activities. The list will also include centres where mass copying cases have been found.
Senior Congress leader Premchand Guddu’s daughter Reena Setia is chairperson of the Radiant College. Her husband Ashish Setia is CEO of the college. The university sources stated that Radiant College may be blacklisted for exams if the role of other persons from the institute surfaced in the police investigation.
The university is taking strict measures to ensure the safety of its exams and prevent any kind of paper leak in the future. All these steps are being taken to guarantee the security of the students and maintain the integrity of the exams.
