On October 27, Chairman NAB Justice (R) Javed Iqbal ordered an inquiry against National Testing Service (NTS) for alleged embezzlement and leakage of question papers before test.
Chairman said NAB would not allow any institution to affect the future of students by violating merit and transparency. NAB has received a complaint against the National Testing Service (NTS).
The NTS, which has allegedly failed to protect rights of students would also be probed on this matter.
Last month, the Lahore High Court barred the NTS from taking test of students who wanted to take admission in various university programs.
More than 1,800 candidates appeared for entry test but after leaking of paper, many students were deprived from the chance of being selected.

In 2016, a similar incident happened but the Sindh government did not take any action against NTS authorities.
The students demanded NTS to be banned in Sindh citing the failure of NTS authorities to provide a system based on merit.
