NEW DELHI/LUCKNOW, May 1 � AIEEE question papers were leaked in Uttar Pradesh and reportedly sold for Rs 6 lakh forcing CBSE to postpone the test taken by over 12 lakh students across the country today by over two hours and provide them with fresh set of questions, reports PTI.

Immediately after the question papers of the All India Engineering Entrance Examination (AIEEE) were leaked, CBSE postponed the two exams which were scheduled to begin at 9:30 am and 2:00 pm today, a senior HRD ministry official said here.

�Fresh set of questions were distributed to students�, said CBSE Chairman Vineet Joshi, adding, an enquiry will be conducted into the incident and those involved will be punished.

�When we got to know (about the leak) in the morning, our aim was to do it without causing much inconvenience to most of the children... First was to ensure the exam happens as early as possible,� he said.
