Ranoj Pegu responded to the paper leak case following several discussions on the matter.
The minister claimed that a thorough investigation is being conducted into the entire situation.
The minister stated, "Have to wait patiently for a result, police investigation underway, it's sad that students and teachers were involved, request all people who have information to submit before police, SEBA is a board they will take all necessary needed, HSLC exam suspended on specific grounds."
Pegu added that Ramesh Jain, who is in charge of the reforms, has helped the Secondary Education Board of Assam (SEBA) develop.
Pegu defended the system, which was purportedly accused of destroying students' futures by saying that TET exams and recruiting were going smoothly.
"It is regrettable that question paper leaks affect both professors and students. All of these actions may have been taken to destroy SEBA. The investigation would bring everything to light, he added.
Also, the police have asked former SEBA Chairman Shantikam Hazarika to give them all the information.
Earlier, the All Assam Student's Union (AASU) and several other organisations sought a thorough CBI investigation into the topic of the exam cancellation following the general science paper leak in the HSLC examination during a news conference on Monday.
