The Maharashtra government on Saturday (June 27, 2026) postponed the Teacher Eligibility Test (TET) 2026 over allegations of a \u201cpaper leak\u201d. Around six lakh candidates were expected to appear for the examination scheduled on Sunday (June 28, 2026) across 1,728 centres in the State. \u201cThis decision was taken to make the examination transparent,\u201d the government stated in a press release.<\/p>\n

The Opposition hit out at the government and called for a thorough probe into the alleged paper leak. \u201cWhy is the government not capable of holding a single exam transparently? Why is it playing with the lives of our youth? If the government does not act strictly, we will hit the streets,\u201d Maharashtra Congress president Harshawardhan Sapkal said.<\/p>\n

The decision to postpone the exam a day before the exam was taken after an investigation and search by the Bhiwandi Police in Thane district found people in possession of questions similar to those in the TET paper.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cOfficials of the Maharashtra State Examination Council [MSEC] were immediately called to the spot. They verified the seized papers. During the investigation, it was observed that some of the questions found with the suspects and the questions in the TET paper were the same. A case has been registered in this regard at the Bhiwandi police station,\u201d the statement added.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
\"\"<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cThe process of organising an examination of this scale typically takes around three weeks. Candidates who had already registered for the examination will not have to register again. Since the candidates are not at fault, no re-registration fee will be charged,\u201d MSEC\u00a0Deputy Commissioner Priya Shinde said.<\/p>\n

A first information report (FIR) has been registered against three persons, and the police are conducting further investigation, she said, adding that strict action will be taken against those found responsible.<\/p>\n

The new date for the examination and other related information will be published on the official website of the MSEC.<\/p>\n

Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde called for strict action against the accused. He said the accused should be booked under the stringent Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
