Last year, JEE Main was hacked and some experts took exams remotely on behalf of students. The probe found out the involvement of a gang that charged lakhs of rupees in exchange for a seat in a college. Several exam centres including one in Sonepat were allegedly hacked. It was revealed that many candidates even from different states selected the centre which was allegedly hacked.
