Stating that he accessed the information from a private Telegram group a night before the exam, Saudagar demanded that the authorities should take action against ‘such paper leaks’ using the hashtag ‘#CBSEPaperLeak’.
In a post on X, formerly Twitter, the CBSE dubbed the video as fake.
Earlier, the Board had issued a statement regarding the rumours circulating on social media regarding paper leak.
“It has come to the Board’s attention that certain unscrupulous elements are spreading rumours on YouTube, Facebook, ‘X’ (formerly twitter), and other social media platforms regarding paper leaks or claiming access to the 2025 examination question papers. These claims are baseless and are intended to create unnecessary panic among students and parents,” the national board said in an official statement.
The Board had warned these individuals that they would face legal consequences under CBSE’s Unfair Means rules and the Indian Penal Code (IPC). “It also warned against engaging with such misinformation, stating, “Students found involved in such activities will face consequences under CBSE’s Unfair Means rules and relevant sections of the Indian Penal Code (IPC),” it claimed.
