Over 1,300 answer sheets of HSC exam kept in the office of the Block Development Officer in Kaij, Beed district, were reduced to ashes in a fire, the police said. While most of those gutted on Saturday were of three subjects, those of maths and Urdu bore the maximum brunt of the fire, said M V Naik, sub-divisional officer of police, Kaij, adding that the exact cause is being probed.


The fire was spotted by staffers who told the police. An official said answer sheets of some subjects from the area are collected and sent to the BDO office, from where they are distributed for checking.
