They have been requested to publish a file inside two days.
The evaluated resolution sheets were noticed by means of auto drivers near the national highway in Thottakkattukara round 3pm. "These were evaluated answer sheets of the exam held on December 12. We soon informed the police and handed over the answer sheets to them. The answer sheets had the name of the faculty who evaluated them," said Jerome Michael, works standing committee chairman of Aluva municipality.
According to officers, the solution sheets would have been misplaced whilst they were being transported. "I made enquiries and found that the person who lost the answer sheets is an excellent faculty member. This is unfortunate," said the vice-chancellor.
MG University has a machine were resolution sheets are valuated centrally and supplied to faculty individuals for analysis at house.

There are round 3.5 lakh papers to be valued and we had to complete the process ahead of elections, he said.
