So, the paper leak in Maharashtra is nothing to be surprised about. I would tell the youth and the students to protest and uproot the Fadnavis government. Protests will have to be done here as well; otherwise, they are not going to get justice," the Congress leader told ANI."The Devendra Fadnavis government is responsible for this. The government should accept responsibility and resign. Playing with the future of students is unacceptable. No one has the right to jeopardise the careers and future of young aspirants," Congress leader Nana Patole told reporters last month.Other opposition leaders have also criticised the state body's handling of the paper leak. NCP(SP) leader Rohit Pawar, disputed the MPSC's account of the scale of the leak, alleging, "Even though the commission has cancelled the paper, their explanation that the paper was only with one student is absolutely unacceptable.""According to the information we have received, the fact is that papers were sold for 40-40 lakhs through an agent racket operating across the state, and the commission is also aware of this fact," Pawar added further.Also Read | MPSC denies paper leak allegation as Rohit Pawar demands CBI inquiryMaharashtra Navnirman Sena leader Sandeep Deshpande also raises concerns as to why no FIR had been registered in the case."PM Modi has been saying for the last month that they are very serious about the paper leak issue, and they have even passed a new rule in Parliament stating that such cases will be dealt with very strictly. Now, when there is a paper leak in Maharashtra involving the MPSC Drug Inspector examination, and the police investigation has accepted that there was a leak, with someone reportedly receiving the question paper two days before the examination, my question is: when you have accepted that there was a paper leak and that the paper was in someone's possession before the exam, why has an FIR not been registered?" he asked reporters, further questioning why the government has not pushed for a detailed investigation and FIR.
