New Delhi: The Kerala Education department has quashed the Secondary School Leaving Certificate (SSLC) Mathematics exam after an investigation found that 13 questions from the examination had been leaked. According the reports, the class 10 Maths exam will now be conducted on March 30.

The exams that were earlier scheduled for March 30 will be held on March 31.

Kerala Education Minister Prof. C. Raveendranath today convened an emergency meeting of higher education officials to discuss the matter and this decision was announced after that.
