Jharkhand CID Arrests Six in Probe of JSSC-CGL Exam IrregularitiesPreviousNext

The Jharkhand CID has arrested six individuals in connection with alleged irregularities in the Jharkhand Staff Selection Commission's Graduate-Level Combined Competitive Examination (JSSC-CGL) held in September 2024. Arrests include key accused Abhay Tiwari, his family members, and four successful candidates from Dhanbad and Bokaro districts. The Jharkhand government had canceled several recruitment tests amid protests, but the High Court stayed the cancellations following petitions by successful candidates. A Special Investigation Team continues probing the case.
