While exposing the vicious criminals who are playing with the dreams of lakhs of youth preparing for competitive exams, Jharkhand Police and investigating agencies have made a sensational revelation which has shocked everyone. The main accused, who was caught during the investigation of the SIT in the paper leak case of Junior Engineer (JE) examination of Jharkhand Staff Selection Commission (JSSC), is not a common copycat or a small broker, but has turned out to be an alumnus of the country’s prestigious institute IIT. Despite having a higher technical education, this man chose to compromise with the future of the youth in his lust for shortcutting wealth. Police interrogation has revealed that this cunning mind used to leak the accused JSSC JE question papers and sell them in the black market at a huge price of up to Rs 15 lakh. After this revelation, there has been a stir in the administrative circles and educational institutions of the state.
#1. Studying from IIT and then entering the world of crime: How was the paper leak conspiracy hatched?
Initial investigation and technical surveillance of the SIT revealed that the arrested accused had obtained an engineering degree from a renowned IIT institute of the country. Being highly skilled technically, he used to find new and modern ways to breach the security of the examination system. He, along with some of his other colleagues and brokers, had formed a syndicate which would secretly obtain digital copies or prints of the question papers a few days before the examination. This cunning mind used his technical skills to illegally leak the question papers, avoiding the eyes of the police and the commission, thereby ruining the hard work of the unemployed youth.

Investigation has also revealed that the network of this gang was quite spread. This racket used to contact financially capable candidates desirous of government jobs in Jharkhand and surrounding states. A huge amount of Rs 15 lakh was fixed for each question paper and answer key of JSSC JE exam. After the deal was finalized, question papers were memorized at secret locations or provided to the candidates through digital medium even before the examination. Through this illegal earning, the accused had made huge wealth and luxury lifestyle in a short time, but ultimately the long hand of the law brought this vicious engineer to his destination.

The continuously emerging cases of paper leaks in Jharkhand have created deep dissatisfaction and anger among lakhs of unemployed youth of the state. Youngsters work hard day and night, sitting in libraries and rooms for years and years, and when the exam day comes, such vicious people, with the power of money, put unqualified candidates on the job chair. After this incident came to light, opposition parties and student organizations have raised serious questions on the functioning of the government and the commission. Students say that unless the political and big administrative patrons of this entire syndicate are exposed and given strict punishment, it is impossible to have transparent examinations.
#1. SIT action and possibility of more big revelations in the coming days
Jharkhand Police and investigating agencies say that the arrest of the former IIT student will prove to be a huge milestone in reaching the root of this entire racket. The police is now investigating in depth that which employee or officer within the Jharkhand Staff Selection Commission (JSSC) was involved in this leak scandal, because without inside help it is not possible to release the question paper on such a large scale. The accused is being interrogated on police remand and it is expected that many more big faces associated with this black business will soon be exposed. The government has also adopted a strict stance and made it clear that there will be no laxity in bulldozing and legal action against the counterfeiting mafias so that the youth do not lose faith in the system.
