Strict action should be taken against those involved in this week’s alleged leak of two CBSE examination papers, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal said on Thursday.

“I really feel sorry and sad for the students who have to give their exams again for no fault of theirs. Responsibility shud be fixed n strict action shud be taken against those responsible [sic],” he tweeted.

With the Delhi Police investigating the case, the leak of the nationally-held exam could have originated in the Capital. On Wednesday, Education Minister Manish Sisodia and several AAP MLAs had raised the issue in the Delhi Assembly. Mr. Sisodia had termed the BJP-ruled Central government a “government of leaks”, referring to previous instances of examination leaks and reports that data of users of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s app was not secure.
