DU ‘Gha’ unit admission test question paper ‘leaked’!

Allegations of the question paper leak in Dhaka University ‘Gha’ unit admission test surfaced today hours into the end of the test, although the university authority said that they are not aware of any such allegations.

According to the allegation, emails containing the English section of today’s ‘Gha’ (‘D’) unit admission test question paper were circulated around eight hours before the examination had began, our DU correspondent reports.

The examination was held from 10:00am to 11:00am this morning.

The university authority, however, has not received any such complaints regarding the question paper leak, Professor Sadeka Halim, acting dean of the Social Science faculty, told The Daily Star.

Meanwhile, 14 applicants were detained from different centres for adopting unfair means during the examination, DU Acting Proctor M Amzad Ali said.
