जब तक उपमुख्यमंत्री था, लाखों अभ्यर्थियों ने परीक्षा दी। 𝟓 लाख नियुक्तियां हुई, किसी में भी पेपर लीक नहीं हुआ। जैसे ही नीतीश जी 𝐁𝐉𝐏 के साथ गए पेपर लीक हो गया। पेपर लीक करने वाले भी 𝐍𝐃𝐀 के ही नेता निकले।

While talking about the failure of state governments for job creation in the state, the former deputy chief minister said that during the 17 months of his tenure he organised a university meet and got a 50,000 crore MoU signed to create jobs but then Nitish Kumar broke with the RJD and joined hands with the BJP.

Targeting the Nitish Kumar and BJP leaders Tejashwi said, “5 Lakhs of appointments were made, the paper was not leaked in any of them. As soon as Nitish ji went with BJP, the paper was leaked. The people who leaked the paper also turned out to be leaders of NDA.”

Notably, multiple paper leak cases have been emerged in the Bihar including teacher”s recruitment under BPSC, alleged cases of NEET paper leak and other recruitment exams. The cases of paper leaks have become so rampant that a government employee in Bihar adopted a unique means to earn quick money by engineering leaking of questions for job aspirants.
