New Delhi: The Supreme court on Tuesday refused to make any comments over the plea of raising allegations of widespread malpractices during the 70th Bihar Public Service Commission (BPSC) Preliminary Exam held on December 13, 2024 and told petitioners to approach Patna high court with their grievances.
As the bench was not inclined to examine the case, counsel appearing for the petitioner, Anand Legal Aid Forum Trust, said the entire country witnessed Bihar police’s brutality on peaceful protesters who sought cancellation of the contentious BPSC exam.
“Now this has become a routine, how paper leaks are happening,” the council said.
To this, the bench said, “We understand your sentiments attached… but we cannot be the court of first instance. We feel it will be appropriate and more expeditious that the petitioner approached the Patna High Court under Article 226 of the Constitution.”
The petitioner challenged the BPSC Preliminary Exam on grounds of an alleged paper leak.
Bihar police allegedly used force to control civil service aspirants who demanded the cancellation of the BPSC.
Earlier on Monday, Jan Suraaj Party chief Prashant Kishor on Monday was granted ‘unconditional bail’ by a court in Patna, hours after he was sent to Beur jail for refusing to pay the bail bond.
Kishor, immediately after being released from the jail, addressed the protesting Bihar Public Service Commission aspirants and said, “There is no strength bigger than people’s strength.”
He further informed me about the whole incident and said that the Police took him to Beur jail but they had no documents to keep him there.
