In 2024, the Jharkhand Staff Selection Commission cancelled the applications of 1,44,308 applicants for the Jharkhand Police Constable Recruitment Examination-2023 (Regular and Backlog).
This was due to various reasons, such as not specifying district preferences, not paying the examination fee, not uploading the required photo and signature, and submitting multiple applications. The application window for the competitive exam was open from January 22 to February 21 of that year.
