Union Minister Bandi Sanjay asks TGPSC to provide details of selected candidates of Group-1 exam

HYDERABAD: Minister of State for Home Affairs Bandi Sanjay has asked Telangana Public Service Commission (TGPSC) Chairman B Venkatesam to provide details regarding the Group-1 exam notification, the marks list along with the names of selected candidates, especially those who took the test in Urdu.
Sanjay is seeking to implead in the petition filed by Group-1 aspirants in the Telangana High Court. Recently, several aspirants approached Sanjay alleging irregularities in the conduct of the Group-1 examination and selection process and sought justice.
Following this, the Minister of State wrote to the TGPSC chairman seeking details of all 563 selected candidates, including the marks list, the language in which the test was taken, hall ticket numbers for both Prelims and Mains, category, and details of alleged violations of rules 12.2 and 15.3, with reasons.
He also requested information about the valuation stages, the number of evaluation days and centres, and the total number of hours it took to complete the paper evaluation. Sanjay further sought details of General English and Papers 1–6, including medium-wise attendance, whether aspirants followed the biometric system, and if not, the reasons for non-compliance.
He also asked whether there were any discrepancies in attendance or absentee data. Sanjay alleged that a leak on social media suggested that 618 aspirants scored over 450 marks, which matched the official release, and questioned what action was taken against those responsible.
Sanjay also requested details on claims that over 1,500 candidates received the same marks, where hall ticket numbers were in the range of 0–50, and aspirants alleged the use of a coded marking algorithm. He questioned why only TGPSC followed this system when even UPSC and APPSC reportedly do not.

‘Request you to examine yourself': Chair Jagdambika Pal adjourns House until Monday amid Oppn sloganeering

Lok Sabha was adjourned for the day within a few minutes of reconvening at 2 pm Friday, despite Chair Jagdambika Pal's repeated appeals, which were drowned by sloganeering and interruptions from protesting opposition MPs. Seeking to remind Opposition members that repeated adjournments of the House were 'not an achievement' but a loss for everyone involved, especially the people of India, Pal appealed to them to take their places, referring to the scheduled proceedings related to 200 Private Members Bills to no avail. 'I request you to examine yourself: whose favour is this chaos in?… The people will not certainly benefit from it. The people who sent you to this House to discuss and find solutions to the difficulties they face,' said Pal. 'This day is for you…200 Private Member Bills… Which are as important as any Bill the government itself brings, are scheduled to be tabled… They are your Bills,' he added. This was followed by Pal's nod for the taking up of The Readjustment of Representation of Scheduled Tribes in Assembly Constituencies of the State of Goa Bill, 2024, for further consideration, and passing in Lok Sabha by Minister of Law and Justice Arjun Ram Meghwal. Responding to the interruptions during the process, Meghwal asked if the Opposition was against these communities in the state since it was refusing to allow the discussion to take place. Addressing the protesting MPs again, Pal sought to underscore that there appeared to be no improvement in the state of affairs in the House, despite Speaker Om Birla's all-party meeting during the adjournment period. Asking them to seek the opinion of their constituents on whether their current conduct was why they had been elected, Pal said, '…ask them whether they want to see you indulge in hungama or expect you to discuss the sorrows and problems of the people.' 'What is this deadlock triggered by? You want the government to answer your questions, the government is ready to,' he said, pointing to enthusiastic approval from Meghwal. With no seeming avenue of a debate on the Bill in sight amid the din, Pal adjourned Lok Sabha proceedings until 11 am Monday, July 28. Jatin Anand is an Assistant Editor with The Indian Express.

'We Can Use English Words': PM Modi Steps In As Translator Struggles With Hindi During UK Presser During a joint press conference with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, Prime Minister Narendra Modi stepped in to ease a Hindi translator's struggle while translating Starmer's remarks. Modi calmly told the translator, 'Use English words in between… don't worry,' and reassured him with a warm 'No problem' when he apologised. The light-hearted moment occurred after India and the UK signed a long-awaited Free Trade Agreement aimed at enhancing bilateral trade and investment.
