APPSC Paper Leak Case: Parents appeal government not to nullify entire exam

The state government took the decision after the recent demands made by the Pan Arunachal Joint Steering Committee (PAJSC)

In a bid to protest against the proposed null & void declaration of APPSC exams from 2014 to till date, the parents against the decision convened a general meeting at Giidii Notko in Pasighat on Wednesday to move the state government to roll back the acceptance of declaring the exams as null & void.

Notably, the state government took the decision after the recent demands made by the Pan Arunachal Joint Steering Committee (PAJSC).

The meeting headed by Advocate Toning Pertin urged the state government to constitute a particular screening committee to identify the genuine and tainted candidates with the help of CBI or SIC and, remove the tainted candidates without affecting the genuine ones.

“Declaring the entire examinations of APPSC null & void is not the solution; it’s going to create far-reaching repercussions. So we are opposing the demand for null & void by PAJSC, and accordingly termed it against the rights of natural justice, illogical, and immature for those who are now serving for the state government in different departments and posts” said Pertin.

The parents against the move also ruled the same and demanded natural justice for the genuine and non-tainted candidates whose entire lives are under jeopardized if the state government moves on with declaring the entire examination of APPSC since 2014.

“We all as parents have been supporting the genuine demands of all the aggrieved candidates for the punishment of all those who are involved in the APPSC paper leak case. But after bringing up the issue of declaring the entire examination of APPSC as null & void by APJSC, we parents are now divided and we are completely against the null & void demands of APJSC. Such demands if proceed, will throw out and render several unemployed which will not only affect those genuine candidates, but also it will affect the future generation of those affected candidates” said Germany Lego Pertin, one of the parents.

“Such situation of unemployment and depression out of null & void effect may also lead to the rise of crime in the society, in such cases who will take the responsibility”, questioned Mumtak Saroh, another parent.

Meanwhile, Talom Tabing, Convener of Parents against the null & void declaration of APPSC exams also raised several serious concerns on the certain far-reaching effects upon the genuine candidates who made it through the exams out of their merit.

“If hundreds of young officers and officials serving in the state government are thrown out, the entire family of the persons will get affected economically and such situations and depression may even lead to suicide. So, as an intellectual group, we hope the state government will do justice to the genuine candidates also and we expect the same support and cooperation from the team APJSC,” added Tabing.

Recently, the state government after massive protests by the PAJSC and the public agreed to fulfill the 13-point demand. Of the 13 points, one of the demands was null & void of the entire exams from 2014, wherein malpractices had been found.
