Close on the heels of the leak of the Bachelor of Management Studies (BMS) paper leak on Wednesday, an SMS did the rounds on Saturday morning, claiming to divulge the questions for the international marketing paper, scheduled for that afternoon. “We first thought that our paper had been leaked again. But when we reached the examination centre, the supervisors informed us that the SMS was a fake,” students told DNA. “The SMS was only a rumour,” claimed Dr Subhash Deo, the director of examination.
Close to 9,500 students are appearing in BMS (Sem6) exams, revised syllabus. TP Madhu Nair, the dean of the faculty of commerce, also said that the SMS was fake.
Post the first paper leak on Wednesday of the International Finance paper, semester six, the varsity rectified the paper and a new version was sent to all centres via email and fax within hours.
Another misstep was the leak of the MHRM paper of TY BCom at BNN college, Bhiwandi, which created an uproar and resulted in the rescheduling of the paper on April 11.
