HSSC cancelled the male constable written exam on 7 August 2021, its first day, after the paper leaked; the next day's papers were cancelled too. Multiple FIRs were registered across districts and 14 people were arrested within two days, including a Kaithal coaching-centre operator alleged to have struck deals at about Rs 12 lakh per candidate, with the answer key recovered from the group. The opposition demanded a court-monitored CBI probe.
