Additionally, the court directed the BPSC to file an affidavit addressing the allegations raised in the petitions.

A public interest litigation filed by a legal forum has raised serious allegations of irregularities in the 70th BPSC PT exam. The petition claims that the commission invited private coaching institutes before the exam to discuss exam-related matters with the aim of benefiting certain students.

This incident is being described as the first of its kind in the country, where confidential information was shared before the exam.
