Jharkhand Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) state president and leader of the opposition, Babulal Marandi, has strongly criticized the Hemant Soren-led state government for its decision to abruptly cancel the Jharkhand Specific and Technical Eligibility Competitive Examination. Marandi labeled the cancellation as a profound betrayal of the state’s youth, stating that this action echoes the government’s consistent pattern of disappointing young job aspirants.
The Jharkhand Staff Selection Commission (JSSC) had scheduled this crucial examination for technically qualified graduates. However, the announcement of its cancellation came unexpectedly just before the exam, citing technical glitches as the reason. Marandi questioned the government’s competence, sarcastically asking if the technical arrangements failed due to the Chief Minister’s absence in Delhi or if a genuine issue arose. Regardless of the stated cause, the financial and emotional toll on the young candidates who traveled to attend the exam is undeniable. The youth of Jharkhand, Marandi alleges, have been caught in a web of government conspiracies for the past six years. He further accused the government of jeopardizing careers through leaked papers and then expecting innocent candidates to prove their integrity. Marandi urgently called for the immediate rectification of technical issues and the swift, transparent rescheduling of the examination. He also demanded that the government cover the travel expenses incurred by all candidates to reach their examination centers.
