In his letter to the CBSE, lawyer has said that the schools has violated rules and has transportyed Class XII chemistry board examination answer sheets in Delhi Metro without any security.

According to a report by a leading English daily, the answer sheets were transported by an employee of Mata Kasturi Devi Senior Secondary Public School, located in Najafgarh, on the Metro's Blue Line.

When Narang asked the employee about the packet, he reportedly said the examination superintendent had asked him to drop the answer sheets at the CBSE headquarters in Preet Vihar.
