FROM CHAIRMAN’S DESK Some candidates of CGL 2013 Re-examination have represented to the Commission and the Government regarding alleged irregularities such as allowing those candidates to appear in re-examination who did not appear in CGL 2013 examination conducted earlier which was cancelled and increase in cut off by about 20% in CGL 2013 re-examination because of large scale cheating. It is clarified that all the candidates who have cleared Tier-II examination did appear in original CGL 2013 examination which was cancelled. The candidates whose names/roll number did not figure in the initial result are those who did not fill mandatory field in their OMR sheets leading to their result not figuring in the result of original exam. Increase in cut off could be due to many reasons. The Commission received no complaint of malpractices during CGL 2013 re-examination where the Commission used jammers to ensure that there was no cheating through Bluetooth technology. The higher cut off could be due to the level of difficulty of the question paper being lower and about a year’s additional time the candidates got for preparation. Some candidates have also represented that SSC has changed the format of declaration of result to hide critical data. The Commission was earlier publishing result in the format in which any candidate could see the details of the marks of any other candidate. Many candidates have, from time to time, expressed unhappiness over the details of their result being accessible to other candidates. Those candidates who did not do well in the examination expressed that details of results being seen by others was a violation of their right to privacy. Taking note of their concern the Commission has adopted the new format. The Commission has also noticed a facebook account which may mislead some candidates to think that it is the official facebook account of the Staff Selection Commission. The Commission would like to clarify that as on date it does not have an official account on facebook, twitter handle or Instagram. Till now the Commission has avoided having an official account on these social websites to have only one official website to interact with candidates i.e. “ssc.nic.in” to avoid any confusion.
