Staff Selection Comm candidates demanded resignation of DoPT minister

New Delhi, March 31: Thousands of Staff Selection Commission (SSC) candidates on Saturday held a demonstration here in protest against the "SSC paper leak scam" and demanded resignation of Minister of Department of Personnel and Training (DoPT) Jitendra Singh for not ordering a CBI probe into all SSC examinations.

The SCC candidates gathered at Parliament Street at 11 a.m seeking a probe by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) into the alleged paper leak in the Combined Graduate Level (CGL) Examination held in February.

The body of SSC candidates leading the agitation, Yuva Halla Bol, said: "We have been demanding an independent and time-bound CBI investigation into all SSC examinations. Even after over a month of protest, the government has not agreed to our genuine demands. The inaction and insensitivity clearly proves that this government is anti youth."
