SWABI, Sept 26: NWFP Education Minister Maulana Fazal Ali has said that people involved in leaking out the paper of medical college entry test will be given exemplary punishment.

Speaking to reporters after attending a convention of the Swabi Jamhoori Ittehad on Sunday, he said they had put the academic credibility at stake and defamed provincial medical education.

He told the journalist that raids were continued to arrest the culprits. “All the involved persons would be unveiled and nothing to be hid,” he said.

The minister said the NWFP government would go through the merits and demerits of the entry test and after a wide-ranging discussion, would decide on continuing with the test system.
