Two brothers in Ranchi have expressed their indignation, pointing out that the salary for SDO-BDO positions has reached 1.30 crore rupees, and they have called on the government to publish an official list of salaries.
The younger man, aged 19, mentioning his older brother who is 32, noted that they are both preparing for the same JPSC exam. This situation goes beyond the story of two brothers and reflects the general picture of the system in Jharkhand, where fraud and leakage of examination materials have placed the dreams of two generations of youth on the same study bench.
During a conversation with a journalist, the case study of these two brothers was presented, which causes great concern.
When the reporter asked the older brother, whose age exceeds thirty, about his age, he replied that he is 32 years old. Subsequent questions revealed the ruthlessness of the system. When the reporter asked about the younger brother's age, he replied that he is only 19 years old. When asked how many years they have been taking the same exam (JPSC), the older brother stated that he has been preparing for 8 years and has already made 8 attempts.
This is an example where the 32-year-old older brother, having spent the best eight years of his youth on books and uncertainty regarding JPSC, is forced to compete for one spot with his 19-year-old younger brother in the same examination hall.
Despite the 32-year-old candidate failing to clear the selection after eight attempts, his anger towards the system is evident. He claims that those who had money were able to get the positions by paying for them and bypassed others. He stated that under the current government administration, this situation has become the norm. As soon as a recruitment notification appears, the 'rate' for each position becomes known to the entire market. Those who have money pay according to this rate.
This candidate, facing corruption and low scores, sharply questioned the government. He noted that after the latest JPSC notification, the market rate for the SDO position is set at 1.30 crore rupees and 1.30 crore rupees for the BDO/CO position. He insists that if recruitments proceed this way, the government must officially publish the list of rates along with the notification so that everyone knows how much needs to be paid for a particular position.
Against the backdrop of constant accusations of fraud and corruption in the JPSC and JSSC exams in Jharkhand, this case serves as convincing evidence that the exams not only waste time but also permanently plunge the future of families into darkness. The young man, aged 19, who should have been looking for new horizons after college, finds himself in the same atmosphere of disappointment, watching his 32-year-old brother fail eight times. The question remains open: will there be any future for these young people who study hard in the face of an alleged 'rate' of 1.30 crore?
