Controversy Over Bihar PSC Exams: Fair Play or Foul?

The Patna High Court dismissed petitions against the Bihar Public Service Commission exams, stating no malpractice evidence. Despite controversy over leaked papers and protests demanding a re-exam, the court instructed for a fair and transparent mains examination. Political figures have shown support for the protesters.

The controversy surrounding the Bihar Public Service Commission (BPSC) exams has reached a critical point as the Patna High Court ruled that there was no definitive evidence of malpractice.

The court's decision comes amid accusations of question paper leaks and demands from job aspirants for the annulment of the exams conducted in December last year. The division bench, led by Acting Chief Justice Ashutosh Kumar, dismissed multiple petitions challenging the preliminary exams.

While the court has given the green light for the mains examination to proceed, ensuring transparency and fairness, the issue has garnered widespread attention, with significant political figures extending support to the aggrieved candidates.
