Three students stabbed their classmate after he allegedly refused to show his answer-sheet to them during a written examination of Class 10 in Bhiwandi town of Maharashtra's Thane district, police said today.
Following the incident that took place on Tuesday at a school after the examination, the injured student was admitted to a local hospital, they said.

He was later discharged from the hospital, he said.
A case under Indian Penal Code (IPC) section 324 (voluntarily causing hurt by dangerous weapon or means) was registered at the Shanti Nagar police station in Bhiwandi against the three minor accused.
