Meanwhile, it was decided that the Crime Branch of police would investigate into the alleged leak of question paper, a senior police officer said.
The decision for a crime branch probe was taken at a high level meeting convened by DGP Sanjiv Marik after reports were received from several places about the sale of question papers of the test, he said.
The last-minute cancellation of test caused anger and resentment among a large number of candidates who had travelled long distances to reach the centres.
