Jharkhand High Court Overturns Government Cancellation of 2024 JSSC-CGL Exam
The Jharkhand High Court quashed the state government's August 2024 order cancelling the Jharkhand Staff Selection Commission Combined Graduate Level (JSSC-CGL) exam and related appointments, calling the decision "unfair and unjust." The court reinstated the selected candidates and allowed the ongoing CID probe into alleged irregularities to continue. The government had cancelled 22 recruitment exams amid protests over alleged exam malpractices. Petitioners argued that penalising all candidates for the misconduct of a few was unjustified.
