AMN —
The Supreme Court today cancelled the All India Pre-Medical Test 2015 and directed the CBSE to re-conduct the test within four weeks. A vacation bench of justices R K Agrawal and Amitava Roy directed the re-examination in view of large-scale cheating in the test with students getting answers in the examination hall at many places.
The court had reserved its order on Friday on petitions seeking re-conduct of AIPMT 2015 for alleged large-scale irregularities in the exam which was held on May 3. The petitions in the Supreme Court were filed by candidates who claimed that mass cheating during the examination had vitiated the process. CBSE was to declare the results of AIPMT, taken by over six lakh students, on June 5.
