For the class 10 math exam, the government had said it would only be held in Delhi and Haryana if the police investigation points to a "large-scale leak".
Menwhile, Union Minister of State for Human Resource Development Satyapal Singh said today the central government is working to prepare a mechanism that will ensure that no question paper ever takes place in the future.
