BPSC rules out cancellation of Dec 13 exam
The Bihar Public Service Commission (BPSC) on Friday made it clear that the 70th Integrated Combined (Preliminary) Competitive Examination (CCE) 2024 held on December 13 across the state will not be cancelled over allegations of paper leak and irregularities.
Speaking to the media, BPSC Examination Controller Rajesh Kumar Singh said, "There is no question of cancelling the entire BPSC exam held on December 13.
The BPSC decided to cancel the preliminary examination held at Bapu Pariksha Parisar centre only due to disruption created by a group of unruly aspirants as part of the conspiracy to disrupt the exam. The re-examination will be held on January 4 at some other centre in the city."
"We have information that a group of private coaching institutes are instigating aspirants and they are mobilising students to raise the demand for the cancellation of the entire exam. Their demand is baseless," he added.
BPSC protest Khan Sir
Educator Khan Sir went to join the protest on the 10th day of the demonstration by the BPSC candidates, accompanied by Guru Rehman and called for a re-examination. "We are only demanding a re-examination from the commission. The commission can conduct as difficult an examination as it wants. We are not running away from this. We are saying that take a difficult examination and do not give children's questions... the questions in our class tests are more difficult than this... Why did the commission hide the evidence and CCTV footage?" Khan Sir said while addressing the crowd and the media.
