Following the shocking leakage of Common Admission Test question papers and reports that admissions to medical colleges may have been manipulated too, Bihar on Tuesday put all recent admissions to government-run medical colleges under the Central Board of Secondary Education quota under the scanner.

Medical Education Secretary Afzal Amanullah said he has written to the principals of all government medical colleges to make available the mark sheets and permanent addresses of these students. He said the details will be forwarded to the Central Bureau of Investigation.
Ranjit Singh, the kingpin of the paper leakage racket, hails from Bihar and is known to have manipulated admissions to medical colleges too. The CBI believes Singh leaked bank probationary officers' exams papers too.
Fifteen per cent of seats in the state's government medical colleges are reserved for CBSE quota candidates.
