Earlier last year, the Rajasthan 2nd Grade Teacher Recruitment Exam had to be cancelled following the exam paper leak. The recruitment exam was conducted by the Rajasthan Public Service Commission. Following the cancellation of the exam, the Rajasthan police held 55 people in connection to the incident and sent them to police remand. 

The RPSC announced the cancellation of the exam after the paper leak came to light. The RPSC 2nd grade paper 2022 circulated on social media before its commencement. The exam was scheduled from 9 am to 11 pm on December 24.

A few days after the RPSC paper leak, the Rajasthan police raided mastermind Saran’s girlfriend’s house. The police busted a fake degree racket during the raid, seizing fake degrees and marksheets from over 4 dozen fake universities. 

With the escalation of the matter with the ruling congress government and members of the BJP opposition camp exchanging heated comments, the Jaipur Development Authority (JDA) also demolished the illegal portions of the main accused Bhupendra Saran’s house in Jaipur. The demolition drive came after the JDA tribunal found that the front and back setbacks of Saran's house were encroaching upon the nearby roads.

“Paper leaks happen many times. Recently, it happened in Arunachal Pradesh, the lathi charge happened in Uttarakhand, happened in Madhya Pradesh, happened in Gujarat, and paper leaks are happening in all the states. The paper leak has become a national disease. We have put people in jail, passed laws, registered houses and have done a lot more.” said Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot on the Paper leak case,” Rajasthan Chief Minister said while speaking to the Media outside the Parliament on February 22, 2023.
