What FACTLY found

UP Government had not notified a ‘special exam’ for 10th and 12th class students aspiring for government jobs. A notification was released by the Assam government that no student would be able to apply for a state government post if he/she doesn’t apply for the ‘special exam’. However, it was decided on 08 July 2021 that this ‘special exam’ would be removed, after opposition from various student organisations
