Can sacrifice myself to protect youth interests: Uttarakhand CM highlights 'swift action' against UKSSSC exam paper leak

Uttarakhand CM pledges to sacrifice himself for youth interests, announces CBI probe into UKSSSC exam leak and highlights anti-cheating law achievements.

"I can bow my head and even sacrifice myself to protect the interests of our youth - Pushkar Singh Dhami"

Dehradun, October 1

Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami on Wednesday addressed the recent Uttarakhand Subordinate Service Selection Commission (UKSSSC) exam paper leak incident, assuring that his government had acted promptly to maintain fairness and transparency in the recruitment process.

According to the Chief Minsiter's Office (CMO), CM Dhami stated that as soon as the matter came to light, the authorities arrested the accused and constituted a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to investigate the entire examination process.

"We are committed to ensuring that the youth of Uttarakhand do not face injustice," the Chief Minister stated.

Taking aim at the opposition, Dhami accused rival parties of politicising the issue.

"The opposition tried to use the issue politically by making students a shield and attempting to create unrest in the state. Those who once questioned CBI and ED investigations are now demanding a CBI inquiry in this matter to derive political mileage," he said.

Chief Minister Dhami further stated that, in order to address the concerns of the youth and foil the conspiracies of disruptive elements, he had personally met with the students and assured them that a CBI probe would be conducted and all their legitimate demands would be fulfilled.

He emphasised that the state government has enacted India's strictest anti-cheating law to make recruitment processes transparent and curb cheating mafias.

"As a result, more than 25,000 youths have secured government jobs over the last four years, a record. Over 100 members of the cheating mafia, who had turned cheating into an industry during previous governments, have been sent to jail under this law. All these steps have been taken to secure the future and interests of the youth," he said.

The Chief Minister concluded by saying that some people are claiming that the government has bowed to the demands of the youth or those calling for a CBI probe.

"To such people, I want to make it clear," he said, "that I can bow my head and even sacrifice myself to protect the interests of our youth," CM Dhami emphasised.

The Uttarakhand Subordinate Service Selection Commission (UKSSSC) graduate-level competitive examination 2025 has come under intense scrutiny following allegations of malpractice, prompting the state government to launch a judicially supervised probe.

While I appreciate the swift action, why did it take a major scandal for the government to act? The cheating mafia has been operating for years. This should have been addressed much earlier.

As someone who gave this exam, I'm relieved that action was taken. But the mental stress and wasted preparation time can't be compensated. Hope the re-exam happens soon with proper security measures.

The CM meeting students personally shows good intent. In a country where youth unemployment is so high, ensuring fair recruitment processes is crucial. Hope this isn't just political drama before elections.

25,000 jobs in 4 years is impressive! But one paper leak can destroy trust in the entire system. Need permanent solutions, not just reactive measures. The SIT investigation must be thorough and transparent.

The "sacrifice myself" rhetoric sounds dramatic, but what youth really need is systemic reforms. Digital exams, better monitoring, and harsh punishments for officials involved in leaks would be more meaningful.
