Chandigarh, November 1

Congress General Secretary Randeep Surjewala on Monday challenged Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar, DGP PK Agrawal and IGs to take the police constable recruitment exam and get at least 30 per cent marks.

He claimed that the questions of the level of MA or PhD of Botany, Zoology, Sociology, International History, International General Knowledge, MSc Mathematics were asked instead of IPC or human rights or constitutional rights or state-related General Knowledge.

“Are you recruiting International, national-level social scientists, botanists, zoologists, sociologists, etc, or constable for Haryana Police?” he asked.

Giving examples, he pointed out that questions like "what is canthrophily", one related to “body with pores and canals in walls” and another about Red Blood Cells in frogs were asked for constable recruitment.

He was referring to the recruitment exam for the 5,500 posts of police constables (Male), for which 8.39 lakh youth have applied, and for which examinations were being held in the morning and evening shifts on October 31 and November 1. Some candidates will take the exam on November 2 too. 

At a press conference, he alleged, “This is a conspiratorial method so that the eligible youth for police constables can be excluded from the selection process and the favourite ones could be recruited through the back door.”

“The Khattar government and HSSC (Haryana Staff Selection Commission) have once again made a mockery of the competence, ability, and potential of the Haryana youth.”

He questioned how “can the eligibility of candidates be tested based on eight different papers for the same post of police constable held on a single day?”
