In a shocking incident that took place in Tamil Nadu, 1st-year MA History students of Periyar University in Salem were asked in the exam, "Which one is the lower caste that belongs to Tamil Nadu?" with 4 options mentioning different castes. This has led to a controversy. After the news broke out, R Jagannathan, Vice-Chancellor, Periyar University said that the question papers are not prepared by them. "Other University & college lecturers prepare the paper. Usually, to avoid a question paper leak, we don't read the papers before the exam," he said. Jagannathan also said that they will investigate the matter and consider reexamination.
