Cuttack, July 20(OT Webdesk): The Board of Secondary Education (BSE), Odisha, has postponed the Special Odisha Teacher Eligibility Test (OTET) Paper-I and Paper-II scheduled for today, sparking frustration among nearly 75,000 aspiring educators across the state.
While no official explanation has been provided by the BSE, reports suggest that handwritten versions of the exam papers, along with purported answers, surfaced on social media late last night.
The leak, which rapidly gained traction online, allegedly prompted the board’s decision to defer the examination.
The board has yet to confirm the authenticity of the leaked documents or announce rescheduled dates.
Candidates who had prepared extensively for the qualifying exam have called for greater transparency and accountability in the process.
Education officials remain tight-lipped, and aspirants are awaiting a formal statement from BSE clarifying the timeline and safeguards moving forward.
