Karnataka police recruitment exam protests

Overview

Candidates participating in a civil police constable recruitment exam for 3,991 posts in Karnataka staged protests following allegations of irregularities. In the Tikota centre of Vijayapura district, examinees claimed that question papers and OMR answer sheets arrived late and that serial numbers between the two documents did not match.

District officials and the Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) denied these claims, stating that papers were delivered on time and that the serial number discrepancies did not constitute an error under established procedures. The KEA maintained that the examination followed its Standard Operating Procedure.
