Supreme Court rejects petition against illegal scrapyards
Regavim warns illegal scrapyards are fueling car theft and security threats after the Supreme Court accepts the state’s claim that sufficient enforcement measures have been taken.
An urgent petition has been filed with the Supreme Court of India, seeking a CBI-led investigation into alleged irregularities in the Jharkhand Combined Civil Services Preliminary Examination. Activist Harisharan Devgan, represented by advocate Satyam Singh Rajput, has requested the court to intervene and ensure a fair probe by an independent agency, rather than the State Criminal Investigation Department (CID).
The petitioner emphasized the need for accountability and justice for public officials and examination agencies. The alleged irregularities, discovered after the July 2, 2026 results were announced, include the circulation of a carbon copy of a candidate's OMR answer sheet showing evaluation issues. This revelation sparked protests, hunger strikes, and the resignation of three JPSC members.
In response to the allegations, the State government has agreed to cancel the 14th JPSC examination.
