Notably, Jharkhand has been reeling under the crisis of food safety officers for quite a long time. 

Also, the vacation bench of the Jharkhand High Court, a couple of days back, rejected the petition of an aspirant seeking age relaxation.

The court said that the JPSC examination is being conducted under the supervision of the High Court and the court will not interfere in it.
