Police recruitment board warns against caste rumours on selected candidate
The Police Recruitment Board has clarified that caste cannot be determined by name or title, responding to questions raised about Manmohan Singh Yaduvanshi, selected under the EWS category in the 2025 constable recruitment. The board said his selection was based on certificate verification.
It appealed to the public not to spread false information about any candidate without full knowledge. Action will be taken against those spreading rumours, including on social media.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The board’s statement addresses social media speculation that questioned the EWS category selection of a candidate whose name includes a surname often associated with other communities. By stating that name or title cannot determine caste, the board is reaffirming that the selection process relies only on submitted certificates. The warning of action against rumour-mongers signals an attempt to contain the controversy before it widens. No further investigation or review of the selection has been announced.
