Supreme Court has set up a committee to
suggest reforms to hold the competitive exams after the conflicts that arised
in SSC examination. The committee includes Nandan Nilekani, a co-founder of
tech giant Infosys, and renowned computer scientist Vijay P Bhatkar.
The committee would suggest reforms to the
government bodies, which conduct competitive examinations like the SSC, as
there are several cases of questions paper leaks.
This committee was set up after conflict
arised in SSC 2017 result publication, though it was ordered to cancellation
because of difficulty in identifying the cause of the paper leak. Cancellation
had a huge protest from the aspirants side. So the court in 2017 hearing has
implemented to conduct it afresh by the National Testing Agency or the CBSE “in
the interest of students”.
Petitioner Shantanu Kumar, who had sought
cancellation of examination, had said that contract of private company Sify
Technologies Pvt Ltd, which had conducted the SSC examination, is now called
off.
The SSC is a government body which conducts
examinations to recruit staff at multiple levels in various ministries and
departments.
