New Delhi: Amid the candidates alleged a scam in the conduct of the CGL tier 2 examination and ongoing protests in front of the SSC office in New Delhi, the Commission has alleged that the protest is being ‘actively instigated and sponsored by two Coaching Institutes/ agencies with vested interests’. The protesting candidates demanded a CBI inquiry into the allegations of scam on Staff Selection Commission (SSC)’s Combined Graduate Level (CGL ) tier II examination held recently.
Even as Chairman of Staff Selection Commission, SSC released an official statement regarding the Combined Graduate Level Examination, the protests by candidates continue to grow louder. Many students have taken to the social media channel twitter to talk about the examination conducted by SSC. Candidates are alleging a scam in the conduct of the examination and expressed a desire for a CBI inquiry into the matter. The commission, however, has in return issued an official statement and requested for dialogue and representations along with validations of the allegations.
While the true nature of the protest is not ascertained at the moment, sources suggest that the students have been protesting near the office of the commission following the cancellation of the CGL paper conducted at a centre in New Delhi on February 17, 2018. The commission had decided not to re-conduct the examination. The Chairman’s message also notes that the commission believes that two coaching institutes are behind the agitation. In order to resolve the dispute and restore order, the commission has decided to hear the protestors.
