BJP govt ended era of paper leaks in police job exams in Rajasthan: HM Shah

Union Home Minister Amit Shah credits BJP govt for ending paper leaks in Rajasthan police recruitment and improving law & order under PM Modi's leadership.

"A state can progress only when it promotes youth on the basis of merit. - Amit Shah"

Jaipur, Jan 10

Union Home Minister Amit Shah, on Saturday, credited the Bharatiya Janata Party-led Rajasthan government for improving law and order in the state and credited Chief Minister Bhajan Lal Sharma for ending the Congress era malpractice of paper leaks in police job examinations.

Speaking at an event to distribute appointment to nearly 9,000 Rajasthan Police Constables, including more than 2,500 women, Home Minister Shah said that Chief Minister Sharma has not only improved the law and order situation in the state but also succeeded in attracting investment under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

The Union Home Minister said the BJP-led Rajasthan government has not only ended the era of paper leaks but also improved law and order in the state by bringing down the overall crime rate by 14 per cent.

The BJP-led Rajasthan government has brought down dacoities by 47 per cent, loots by 51 per cent, murders by 25 per cent, attempts to murder by 19 per cent, crimes against women by 10 per cent and crimes against SC/ST by 28 per cent, he added.

Lauding the Chief Minister Sharma for concluding the constable recruitment in a transparent and merit-based manner, Home Minister Shah said, "A state can progress only when it promotes youth on the basis of merit."

The Union Home Minister also exhorted the young recruits to make the best use of the new criminal laws introduced under PM Modi's vision for speedy justice.

"With the introduction of the three new criminal laws, the prosecution rate in Rajasthan has increased from 41 per cent to 60 per cent and I am confident that there is no hurdle in taking it to 85 per cent to ensure that all criminals remain behind bars," he said.

Earlier, Home Minister Shah called upon citizens to use 'Make in India' products, calling it the sure shot recipe for realising PM Modi's dream of becoming self-reliant and the world's largest economy.

Speaking at the 'Maheshwari Global Convention and Expo-2026' in Jodhpur, the Union Home Minister said the nation would progress only when it uses indigenous products.

Praising the Maheshwari community, Home Minister Shah said, "Both in India and abroad, if a community remains connected to its roots, it is commendable. The Maheshwari community has always risen to the occasion whenever the country needed support. When fighting against the Mughals, the community contributed significantly to the royal treasuries and the Independence struggle, including funding the efforts of leaders like Mahatma Gandhi."

Finally! So many talented candidates suffered because of the corrupt paper leak system earlier. My cousin had his exam cancelled twice. Merit-based selection is the only way forward for a strong police force. 👏

Good to see the focus on 'Make in India' as well. Self-reliance is key. But I hope the new criminal laws are implemented fairly and don't end up targeting common people. The proof will be in the conviction rates on the ground.

While the reduction in crime statistics is impressive, I'd like to see these numbers verified by independent agencies. Also, crediting one community's historical contribution in a recruitment event seems a bit off-topic. The focus should remain on the new constables.

Transparency in recruitment is the biggest takeaway. For years, these jobs were sold to the highest bidder. If a young person from a village can get a job on merit, it changes their family's future. This is real 'achhe din' for them.

The 47% reduction in dacoity is remarkable for Rajasthan. That used to be a major issue in the rural areas. Combined with job creation, this can bring real stability. Hope other states learn from this model.
