Uttarakhand Cancels UKSSSC Graduate-Level Exam After Leak, Sets Re-Test in Three Months

A judge-led inquiry spurred the cancellation, with the state seeking a CBI probe to rebuild confidence in the recruitment process.

Overview

  • The UKSSSC scrapped the September 21 written test after its inquiry commission’s report was submitted to Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami.
  • Officials said a fresh examination for 416 vacancies will be held within three months, with the date to be announced.
  • Three photographed pages of the paper from a Haridwar centre circulated online, prompting an SIT probe and arrests linked to the alleged leak.
  • More than 100,000 candidates were affected as protests by unemployed youth and student groups pressed the government to act.
  • The commission postponed two upcoming exams and is planning tighter security, including 5G signal jammers and greater use of government-run centres.
