Hundreds of first-year law students appearing for their second-semester examination at the Government Law College (GLC) and K C college were in for a shock, when they were handed the wrong question paper on Tuesday. By the time the goof-up was realised, half an hour had passed and students had almost completed the multiple choice questions (MCQ) section. While a new question paper was eventually received by the examiners and given to the students, over an hour was wasted. Students who appeared for the constitutional law exam on Tuesday claimed they were given the question paper from last year.

'Wrong question paper'

“In the first-year exams on Tuesday, the students completed the half-hour MCQ section after which we were told that this was the wrong question paper and the college had printed the previous year's paper. While exams at many other colleges were about to get over, we at GLC and KC college were awaiting new question papers,” said a student from GLC.
