Hundreds of candidates protesting against alleged rigging in the 70th BPSC Preliminary Examination took to the streets of Patna on Monday. Popular educator ‘Khan Sir’ joined the protest, asserting that the Bihar Public Service Commission (BPSC) must re-conduct the exam. The candidates have been agitating for the last 62 days, demanding a fair examination process. The demand for a re-exam is also under judicial scrutiny. The Patna High Court’s next move regarding the future of the BPSc examination is expected to be made on Monday, February 17. The first hearing was held on January 16, when the High Court directed BPS C to submit an affidavit before January 31. However, despite multiple listings, the case has not been heard again until now, and a hearing is expected on Monday as well. The case has been listed at the Patna District and Sessions Court, and the hearing will be held on February 17 at 10am.
