Jharkhand High Court Maintains Stay on JPSC Appointment Cancellation, Sets Response Deadline
The Jharkhand High Court has maintained its stay on the state government's cancellation of appointments from the 11th to 13th Jharkhand Public Service Commission (JPSC) and JSSC recruitment exams amid allegations of irregularities. The court directed the government to file a response by September 18, rejecting a four-week extension and granting only 48 hours to submit a status report. While interim protection allows affected candidates to continue their posts, those found guilty of wrongdoing may face termination. The legal dispute follows allegations of paper leaks and irregularities involving a blacklisted agency.
