Still, the mobile phones were available in the Examination Controller's office along with question papers. These officials were held responsible for misconduct of examination. Some students were also present inside the office. Further investigation is currently on," the official said."These officials were taken into custody on Monday afternoon and underwent thorough interrogation. They have revealed vital information about the question papers leaked in Veer Kunwar Singh College, Arrah," he said.The question paper leak came in public domain after some aspiring candidates, waiting for the question papers, were not given them at the scheduled time at 12 noon on May 8.

The government and BPSC had taken a good decision by cancelling the examination to save the future of students," Chaudhary said.Asked about the compensation to the aspirants, as demanded by RJD leader Tejashwai Yadav, Chaudhary said that compensation has not been given in the past.
