According to Dr. Gurpreet Singh Lehal of Punjabi university, the coordinator for written test for recruitment of Assistant Professors in Punjabi, said “a highly confidential process was followed for setting the question paper. A panel of nine experts from 5 Universities from Punjab and other states was formed to create a database of 600 questions. Each expert independently created his set of questions and no expert was aware of the questions set by other 8 experts. The task of creating the final question paper was accomplished by randomly selecting the 100 questions from the question Bank by a computer program. There was no question of leakage of the questions by the subject experts as no one knew the final questions that were selected by the computer program.”

He was commenting, after some candidates alleging discrepancies including exam paper leak, who had appeared in the ‘Punjabi examination’ ,in the recent drive of Punjab government to fill 1091 posts of assistant professors (college cadre) of various subjects.
