Exam Of Bihar Police Constable Recruitment Is Cancelled
Patna: The Bihar constable recruitment exam, which was held on October 1, has been canceled due to a paper leak, according to an official statement.

“There were complaints of using electronic devices and other fraudulent methods by the candidates at certain centers. As a result, the exam has been postponed until further notice. The individuals who were caught cheating were arrested on the spot,” the CSBC statement said.
