Former Haryana Chief Minister Hooda and protesting HPSC candidates criticize the Haryana Public Service Commission's 35% cut-off policy for subjective papers. They argue it leads to widespread unemployment, leaves thousands of positions vacant, and disproportionately affects reserved categories by reducing them to 'paperwork.' Candidates demand the policy's abolition, calling for interviews with twice the number of vacancies and greater transparency in the evaluation process to fill all vacant posts.
