I raised my voice against corruption. Maybe some people did not like it, but I do not care. I will continue to fight against corruption," Pilot said at the time.Chief Minister Gehlot, too, condemned the incident, terming the exam paper leaks as a 'disease' while assuring that strict action had been taken against the accused and proper laws were brought to check such practice in future."There are many states where such paper leak incidents take place. That said, I feel very sad (over the Rajasthan exam paper leaks). We have proposed a strict new law in Rajasthan and have sent the accused to jail. This is a major disease and the Rajasthan government is taking strict action against paper leak mafia," Gehlot said.
