Mumbai: A Special Investigation Team (SIT) has been formed to conduct a comprehensive probe into complaints related to Maharashtra- Common Entrance Test (MH-CET), the state's entrance examination for professional courses including engineering, Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis said on Tuesday.
"If any irregularity is found, action will be taken," he said while talking to reporters here after a Cabinet meeting.
Recently a delegation of teachers and students from across the state had met the chief minister to raise various issues related to CET.
Fadnavis has directed that First Information Reports be registered in all these complaints and they be investigated by joint commissioners of police. He has also ordered a forensic audit into the alleged data leak.
The government has already decided to postpone certain Maharashtra Public Service Commission (MPSC) examinations, he further said, adding that comments made by the chairman of the committee constituted in connection with MPSC examinations were misinterpreted.
"At present, none of the examinations are conducted online," Fadnavis said, adding that any future decision would be taken only after discussions with students.
