Parties, outfits invoke ‘Brahmin’ angle to ‘pandit’ reference in U.P. police recruitment exam
Political parties in Uttar Pradesh are invoking the 'Brahmin' angle over a controversial question in a police recruitment exam that referenced the word 'Pandit'. The exam question asked candidates to select a term for 'a person who changes according to circumstances,' with 'Pandit' as one of the options, which some groups deemed derogatory. The Chief Minister has issued directives to avoid such references in future exams.
