The Story in Brief
The Enforcement Directorate has filed an ECIR related to irregularities in the JPSC 14th preliminary exam, acting on a CID-registered FIR. The move follows protests by students demanding a probe into alleged recruitment scams in Jharkhand.
On Sunday, the Hemant Soren government announced a CID and ED investigation after a meeting with protesting JPSC and JSSC aspirants. The central agency’s involvement escalates what was previously a state-level inquiry.
The Indian Opinion
The clumsy phrase ‘exam scam’ gets thrown around too easily in Indian politics. Job aspirants have real grievances about transparency in Jharkhand’s recruitment process. But the ED stepping in at this stage is a familiar pattern: unclear whether this targets systemic reform or political adversaries. The real test is whether the agency files charges against specific officers or stops at a press release. That will tell us if this is clean-up or whipping up a narrative.
