Hemant Soren announces cancellation of JSSC-CGL exam

Chief Minister Hemant Soren has announced the cancellation of the Jharkhand Staff Selection Commission-Combined Graduate Level (JSSC-CGL) exam following an emergency Cabinet meeting. The decision comes after an investigation revealed several "shocking facts" and irregularities in the examination process, including arrests of individuals appointed through the CGL process.

Soren has formed a committee under senior IAS officer Amitabh Kaushal to bring reforms in the examination process and ensure complete transparency. The government will also address concerns raised by students protesting over alleged irregularities and has opened a portal for them to submit suggestions.
