Counselling for the candidates who successfully cleared the Patwari Recruitment Examination 2022 will be held on February 24. Employees Selection Board has also released the final result of the exam. Officials said that counselling will be provided in the allocated district to each candidate. Detail guideline for the counselling has been uploaded on MPOnline portal. Candidates have been asked to upload their documents after creating their profile. Officials said that if any candidate fail to appear for the counselling as per schedule, his candidature will be cancelled. Appointment for these candidates was decided to release after investigative committee gave clean chit to the exam last week. General Administration Department (GAD) had already released an order to allow appointment to the candidates based on the exam result. Patwari recruitment test result was declared on June 30, 2023. After the result was released, allegations were made for the scam in examination process.

 

Former Government led by Shivraj Singh Chouhan put the result on hold and formed committee to probe the matter. On July 13, 2023, Shivraj Singh Chouhan, former CM, wrote on his social media handle, “There is doubt on result of one centre due to which I am putting the appointment on hold. Result of each centre will be re-checked and then process will be held for the appointment.” On July 19, 2023 a committee was formed. The committee investigate the matter for eight months and then Justice Rajendra Verma submit the report to the Government. When the result was put on hold, two different groups of students started demonstrating on city road for two different points. While one group of students were opposing the decision to put result on hold, another group was alleging scam in exam and result process. Wide level of demonstration was held in Bhopal, Indore and Jabalpur.
