The Uttar Pradesh government, led by CM Yogi Adityanath, plans to introduce the Uttar Pradesh Public Examination Ordinance 2024 in response to the leak of exam papers for the RO-ARO and constable recruitment exams.
The state cabinet has given its approval to this idea. The ordinance stipulates that offenders face life in jail and fines of up to Rs 1 crore.
This proposal was adopted in the cabinet meeting presided over by Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, along with forty-four other suggestions. The solver group will cover the cost of the examination if it is impacted by a paper leak or for other reasons. Additionally, companies and providers of services that engage in irregularities during the inspection will be permanently barred from the list.
