Colombo, Nov. 25 (Daily Mirror) - Opposition MP Chamara Sampath Dassanayake today called for a probe to determine whether some questions in the GCE Advanced Level examinations have been leaked. 

MP Dassanayake told Parliament that 27 questions in a model question paper given to the students of a tutory in Nugegoda are identical with the Advanced Level economics paper. 

"I request Prime Minister Harini Amarasuriya to conduct a probe on this," he said. 

He said such leaking creates discrimination as students in rural villages do not get the opportunity of scoring high marks like those in Colombo.
