In a startling revelation, a Talathi recruitment exam aspirant in Maharashtra has emerged with a score of 214 out of 200 marks, sparking concerns about the integrity of the examination process. Vijay Wadettiwar, the leader of the opposition in the state legislative assembly, has called for a thorough investigation by a Special Investigation Team (SIT) into the alleged irregularities.
The anomaly came to light when it was discovered that the same candidate, who achieved an unprecedented 214 marks in the Talathi exam, obtained only 54 marks in another examination for the position of a forest guard. Wadettiwar, expressing his concerns, stated, “If a candidate is getting 214 out of 200 marks, it is now clear how seriously the entire examination system is working and how the concerned persons have rigged the recruitment.”
On January 6th, the official handle of Spardha Pariksha Samanway Samiti, Maharashtra State, posted on social media, “54 Marks in Forest Guard exam and 214 Marks out of 200 in Talathi Recruitment Exam. From this, it is understood how the exams were conducted and how the marks were given. All the selected children should be interrogated by a judicial SIT, and everyone should know the exam centers from which they have given the exam. This is the biggest scam in Talathi exams till date.”
Netizens have actively responded to the incident, with one user emphasizing the need to empower the Maharashtra Public Service Commission for the fair conduct of examinations. Another user suggested, “Enquiry must be done but give the exam responsibility to MPSC as the current exam holder may produce fake answer sheets. Only then, the honest & deserving candidates will be recruited. Government and opposition leaders are responsible for this.”
