New Delhi: A day after Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) announced a campaign on Twitter alleged scam by the commission in announcing the result of the UPSC exam 2019.

The users alleged that the commission had announced vacancies of 927 seats in the services but had announced results for only 829 seats without giving any information about the remaining 98 vacancies.

 Through the campaign, the users alleged that the commission had scammed the 98 seats. Dalit, OBC, SC and ST rights activists soon joined the campaign and added that the commission and the Central Government were against the reservation and that the remaining 98 seats will go to the General category candidates through “backdoor”.

Noted OBC and Dalit rights activist and journalist Dilip C Mandal was also among those who participated in the campaign and sought answers from both UPSC and the Government.
