Jharkhand CID Arrests Two More in Recruitment Exam Irregularities Cases
The Jharkhand CID has arrested two individuals linked to alleged irregularities in recruitment exams. Sanjit Kumar, a coaching centre operator in Ranchi, is accused of acting as an agent in the Jharkhand Public Service Commission (JPSC) exams, while Dilip Kumar Paswan was arrested for providing undue assistance in the Jharkhand Staff Selection Commission (JSSC) Combined Graduate Level (CGL) exam. These arrests bring the total to 13 in the JSSC-CGL case and over 20 in the JPSC case, which also involved former JPSC chairman L Khiangte. Protests led to the cancellation of several exams, though the High Court later stayed this decision.
