At Mumbai University's Centre for Distance and Online Education (CDOE), CCTV footage revealed that Sudesh Tukaram Indap, a 40-year-old contractual staffer, allegedly took photographs of BCom Semester VI exam papers inside the examination control room. This incident occurred between April 9 and April 16, leading to Indap's dismissal and the issuance of showcause notices to three other temporary employees. The university's director, Prof Shivaji Sargar, filed a police complaint after the breach was discovered on April 15. Indap reportedly confessed to forwarding the images for financial gain. The incident has sparked significant concern regarding the university's security measures, as it is mandated to have permanent staff overseeing critical processes. Critics, including members of student bodies, are questioning the accountability of university officials, particularly Sargar, who is responsible for the examination process. Allegations of negligence and inadequate response from the university administration have also surfaced, further complicating the situation.
