Peon sold BSEB answer sheets as scrap

On Saturday, Bihar police arrested a scrap dealer after they found one of the missing 42,400 missing class X answer sheets of the Bihar School Examination Board (BSEB) exams from his shop. The exams sheets went missing from SS Girls High School in Gopalganj and belong to the students from the Nawada district. The arrested scrap dealer was identified as Pappu Gupta. Pappu told that police that he bought all the missing answer sheets from the office attendant of the school. The police have already arrested the office attendant. Pappu further told the police that it may be impossible to find the answer sheets as he has already sold them to another wholesale scrap dealer. Gopalganj Superintendent of Police Rashid Zama said: “We conducted raids at local scrap dealer Pappu Guptaʼs shop and recovered one answer sheet. Gupta said he had purchased answer sheets in bulk from SS Girls Schoolʼs office attendant Chhatu Singh. He said he has been buying scrap from the school since 2014.” SP Zama said “Besides Gupta and Chhatu Singh, one Santosh Kumar, an auto-rickshaw driver who had ferried the answer scripts from the evaluation center to Guptaʼs shop, and the school’s night guard Aashpujan Singh have been arrested”. He also said that police is also questioning some of the ragpickers who move around the school area. Earlier BSEB has said that the missing answer sheets will have no effect on the results as they have already received the marks but if the students whose answer sheets are missing apply for re-evaluation this will be a problem situation for them.
