Barguna: The annual mathematics examinations for class 2 in government and non-government schools in Betagi upazila in the district have been suspended over a question paper leak.

When the upazila primary education authorities came to know about the question paper leak through social media on Saturday night, they immediately halted the test in 140 government and non-government schools where students were scheduled to sit for the exam on Sunday, said Md A Mazid, Barguna District Education Officer.

The test will now be held on December 21 with a new question paper, he added.

A two-member probe committee was formed which was told to submit a probe report within three days.
