Srinagar, Feb 17: The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) on Monday said it was actively monitoring and taking action against those responsible for spreading false information regarding paper leaks and claiming access to the 2025 examination question papers.

CBSE urged the public to remain cautious of unverified news during the ongoing examinations and said that it will pursue legal action against anyone found responsible for spreading misinformation, to uphold the integrity of the examination process.

The CBSE in a statement termed these claims baseless and said such surplus elements intend to create unnecessary panic among students and parents.

"The Board is working closely with law enforcement agencies to identify and prosecute these offenders. Students found involved in such activities will face consequences under CBSE's UNFAIR MEANS rules and relevant sections of the Indian Penal Code (IPC)," the CBSE statement reads.

The CBSE statement reads that certain unscrupulous elements were spreading rumours on YouTube, Facebook, `X’ (formerly twitter), and other social media platforms  regarding paper leaks or claiming access to the 2025 examination question papers.

"Board examinations for Classes X and XII have commenced and will continue until April 4, 2025. The Board has made comprehensive arrangements to ensure the smooth and fair conduct of the examinations," the statement reads.

CSBSE further requested the parents to advise their children not to engage with or believe in unverified information, as it disrupts the examination process.

"All stakeholders, including students, parents and schools, should rely only on official communications from CBSE available on the website (www.cbse.gov.in) and verified public channels for accurate updates," it reads.
