Lucknow, 03 Aug (HS): Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad
(ABVP) expresses serious concern over the irregularities in the Staff Selection
Commission (SSC) examinations, administrative mismanagement, and the
mistreatment of candidates, and demands a high-level inquiry and strictest
action against the guilty. The recent SSC examinations witnessed serious issues
such as flawed centre allocation, technical glitches, disrupting exams, and the
use of force on peacefully protesting candidates outside the DoPT office in
Delhi — all of which have raised grave concerns regarding the transparency of
the examination agency and the entire system.
Millions of youth participate in SSC’s
prestigious examinations with the hope of a better future. Mismanagement in the
conduct of these exams and lack of transparency is extremely unfortunate. ABVP
has always stood for integrity and transparency in all examinations. In this
case, issuing admit cards only two days prior to the examination, allotting
far-off centres to several candidates, technical failures at some centres, and
mistreatment of candidates for raising their concerns are all condemnable
incidents. ABVP strongly protests these lapses and demands immediate and strict
action against the responsible officials.
Cancelling exams without prior notice
clearly indicates a complete failure on part of the examination agency. This
has adversely impacted the candidates’ time, effort, financial resources, and
mental well-being. ABVP denounces the entire sequence of events and demands
that a high-level committee be constituted to investigate the matter, culprits
be punished, new dates for cancelled exams be announced promptly, transparency
be ensured in centre allocation, and respectful communication be established
with the candidates. ABVP appeals to all protesting candidates across the
country to avoid misleading or unverified information and present their demands
in a disciplined, factual, and clear manner.
ABVP’s national general secretary, Dr.
Virendra Singh Solanki, stated, “The
irregularities in the SSC examinations are not merely instances of
administrative failure but a grave injustice to the dignity and future of the
youth. Sensitive handling, transparency, and accountability must be the highest
priorities in the conduct of such crucial national-level exams. ABVP firmly
believes that the guilty must face the strictest punishment, dates of cancelled
exams must be declared promptly, and due action must be taken on the legitimate
demands of the candidates. ABVP stands in solidarity with candidates across the
country and will continue to fight for justice at every level.”
