Staff Reporter :
Education Minister Nurul Islam Nahid on Sunday said that a section of government officials and some immoral teachers are behind the question paper leak.
 “We have taken so many initiatives to stop question papers leakage and accepted many suggestions from different quarters. We received a good number of printing question paper in every examination hall half an hour before starting examination. But when we realised that the government officials and the teachers are behind the question paper leak, we began to take appropriate action,” Nahid said.
The Minister said this after a joint meeting with the officials of Anti-Corruption Commission in the Secretariat on Sunday.
”We are supposed to feel secured when we hand over questions to the teachers. But, some teachers leak questions just after receiving it. A decision has been taken for entry of examinees half an hour before examination starts. The envelope of the question paper will be opened after the student’s entry,” Nahid said.
The Minister said that the main problem of our present education system is that the teachers are not responsible for their performance.
 “The teachers do not teach the students properly in the classrooms. They are busy with the coaching business,” he said.
He also said that the Education Ministry will work together with the ACC to solve problems in the education sector.
Besides, Dr. Nasir Uddin, Member of ACC, said that government staff had direct and indirect involvement with every incident of the question paper leakage.
 “Government has to introduce online based system in every general sector of education system to stop question paper leak,” he said.
