BJP Alleges Question Paper Tampering in Jharkhand Forest Recruitment Exams
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has alleged that strong rooms containing question papers for Jharkhand's Assistant Conservator of Forests and Forest Range Officer exams were broken into and papers tampered with, describing the incident as a 'paper loot' rather than a leak. BJP spokesperson Sudhanshu Trivedi accused the Congress-led INDIA bloc of neglecting student interests and demanded answers from Rahul Gandhi, highlighting ongoing concerns following student protests over exam irregularities. The Jharkhand Public Service Commission's investigation reportedly uncovered these irregularities, raising questions about exam security and political accountability.
