Action will be taken against guilty: Uttarakhand CM Dhami on UKSSSC question paper leak case

Uttarakhand CM Pushkar Singh Dhami pledges zero-tolerance, vows no guilty will be spared in UKSSSC exam paper leak case after police arrest main accused.

"The future of youth will not be allowed to be played with. Action will be taken against whoever is found to be guilty. - Pushkar Singh Dhami"

Dehradun, September 24

Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami on Wednesday said that no one guilty will be spared in the alleged paper leak of the Uttarakhand Subordinate Services Selection Commission (UKSSSC) exam question paper.

His remarks came after Uttarakhand Police arrested Khalid Malik, the main accused in the alleged paper leak of the Uttarakhand Subordinate Services Selection Commission (UKSSSC) exam question paper.

CM Dhami further said that the state government has a policy of zero-tolerance towards such matters and will not let anybody play with the future of youth.

Speaking to reporters, the Chief Minister said, "The future of youth will not be allowed to be played with. Action will be taken against whoever is found to be guilty. We have a zero-tolerance policy...More than 100 cheating mafia members are already behind bars...One accused has been arrested here. All agencies are investigating it. All decisions will be taken that are right and in the interest of students."

On Tuesday, Uttarakhand Police arrested Khalid Malik, the main accused in the alleged paper leak of Uttarakhand Subordinate Services Selection Commission (UKSSSC) exam question paper. Prior to this, the police had also arrested his sister.

Speaking to reporters, SSP Dehradun Ajay Singh said a statement on this matter would be provided only after a detailed interrogation.

The official stated that an investigation is underway to determine the reasons and process of the alleged paper leak.

He said, "...The initial investigation suggests a conspiracy angle, so a statement on this matter would be appropriate only after a detailed interrogation. However, as of now, he has been taken into custody, as he is wanted in this case. Furthermore, the most important thing was to determine whether there was a well-planned conspiracy. The second question was whether there was an organised gang involved in the paper leak."

"I would like to clarify that there was no organised gang involved, and I believe this was done by an individual or a group of individuals. We are investigating it from both angles. One is from the conspiracy angle, and the second is how he leaked the twelve questions of the paper. The investigation is still on, the interrogation is still going on, so we will be able to give detailed information about it later...His sister has also been sent to judicial custody...The investigation is ongoing..." the official added.

This is a good step but why does this keep happening? Every few months there's a new paper leak scandal. The system needs complete overhaul, not just arresting one person.

As someone who has observed Indian education system, I appreciate the zero-tolerance approach. However, the focus should be on preventing leaks rather than reacting after they happen.

My brother was preparing for this exam! So unfair for honest students. Hope they investigate properly and find all involved. The cheating mafia should be crushed completely. 💪

Interesting that they arrested both the main accused and his sister. This suggests a family involvement. Hope the investigation reveals the entire network behind this.

Good that CM is taking this seriously. But action should be swift and transparent. Students' futures are at stake. The guilty must face strict punishment, no matter who they are.

This is why digital exams with proper security measures are needed. Traditional paper-based systems are too vulnerable to leaks. Time to modernize our examination process.
