Jan Suraaj Party founder and political strategist Prashant Kishor on Monday raised serious allegations against the Bihar Public Service Commission (Bihar PSC), claiming that “thousands of crores of rupees have changed hands” for appointments to be made through the exam process. His comments come amid growing protests from candidates who are demanding the cancellation of the exam, citing alleged irregularities and corruption.
The controversy surrounding the Bihar PSC exam has intensified over the past two weeks, with candidates taking to the streets to express their dissatisfaction. Despite braving harsh weather conditions, baton charges by police, and water cannons, the protestors continue to demand justice. Kishor, who was once a close associate of Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, has now publicly expressed his dismay over the lack of response from the state government.
Prashant Kishor, who is known for his bold political statements, claimed to have received information about widespread corruption in the Bihar PSC exam process. “I have learned that thousands of crores of rupees have exchanged hands for filling the positions through this exam. The entire process is tainted with corruption,” Kishor said during his interaction with the media.
