BPSC Candidates Protest: Re-Examination Demands Grow Amid Paper Leak Allegations; Khan Sir Faces Backlash From Students

BPSC Examination Controller Rajesh Kumar Singh on Friday clarified that only selected aspirants will be given the opportunity to appear in the exam because their exam was disturbed by a group of "unruly aspirants". "There is no question of cancelling the entire BPSC exam held on December 13. The BPSC decided to cancel the preliminary examination held at Bapu Pariksha Parisar centre only due to disruption created by a group of unruly aspirants as part of the conspiracy to disrupt the exam. The re-examination will be held on January 4 at some other centre in the city," Singh stated.
