Police have arrested a man accused of being the mastermind behind the Maharashtra Teachers Eligibility Test (TET) paper leak. The suspect, identified as Bijendra Gupta, was taken into custody in Bihar. He had been evading arrest for months despite multiple raids by Maharashtra Police at various locations in the state.
According to police sources, Gupta is believed to have links to several other examination paper leak cases across the country. After his arrest, he was brought to Pune Airport and will be taken to Bhiwandi for further investigation.
The Maharashtra TET exam paper leak had caused widespread disruption, leading to the cancellation of the test. Authorities have been conducting a thorough investigation to identify those involved. Gupta's arrest is considered a significant breakthrough in the case.
Police are continuing their inquiries to determine the full extent of the network behind the leak. Further details are expected as the investigation progresses.
