Bhubaneswar: The Odisha Staff Selection Commission (OSSC) has cancelled the Main Written Examination of Hindi and Sanskrit teachers held in September, this year as questions were found to have been out of syllabus.
In a statement, the OSSC said a large number of representations were received from candidates that several questions in the main test for Hindi and Sanskrit teachers were out of syllabus. The aspirants said the examination should be cancelled and re-examination held.
It said the commission has examined the objections/representations in consultation with academic experts and has come to the conclusion that a significant number of questions were from outside the syllabus published.
