West Bengal School Staff Recruitment Scam : Live Updates From Supreme Court Hearing

Another Counsel (for the allegedly tainted): the OMR sheets found from Pankaj Bansal are not ours

Nandy: across the board, it is admitted that there are generational losses....for examples - when in 2019/2018 when we converted the word to PDF there would be errors

Nandy (for assistant teachers) : as per the order there are 3 types of tainted, based on different kinds of evidence, I am in third category where OMRs are challenged

Sr Adv Karuna Nandy: it is not the hash value of each of the OMRs compared

CJI: what they have done is that they compared the hash value of the two harddrives

Patwalia: SSC in proceedings have recorded that all actual sheets are destroyed

CJI: you want us to believe your argument?

Sr Adv Patwalia for affected candidates: according to me, the affidavit of the board can't be relied upon, every authority is relying upon the information of that Gentleman (Pankaj Bansal) who says 'as per my knowledge'

Counsel : we have written the exam, got good marks, now we are being thrown out without any evidence

Counsel : mylords keep repeating everyday that everyone should be given an opportunity, here I am saying that there is no material to indicate that there are tainted results

CJI: the SSC, board also admit there is wrong doing, the CBI is also saying there is wrong doing, we are going by preponderance

matter resumes

Counsel: today prosecution has been initiated, today the conclusion arrived that cannot be substantiated by the evidence, kindly await the prosecution , pls do not uphold the decision

Counsel for Group C-D appears (where tainted candidates percentage is higher)

CJI: I don't know whether daal mein kaala hai yaan sab kuch hi kaala hai! ( Don't of there's a black spot in lentils or its in fact black lentils!)
