Gangtok, Nov 28: Citizen Action Party (CAP) and Sikkim Democratic Front (SDF) party have raised serious allegations of irregularities in the Sub-Inspector recruitment conducted by the Sikkim Public Service Commission (SPSC), whose results were declared on November 26, 2025.
On November 28, the SDF delegation visited the SPSC office, but the chairman and the secretary were unavailable.
Speaking to the media, Chelli Morcha incharge Komal Chamling said, “As soon as we heard the allegations related to the SI results, the party immediately issued a press release. Many aspirants reached out to us through different mediums, questioning the objectivity of the process. We felt it was our duty as a responsible opposition party to approach the concerned department,”.
Chamling said that an SDF delegation visited the SPSC office, but the chairman and the secretary were unavailable.
“The chairman was not in the office at a time when such an uproar has taken place in the state, and the secretary was unwilling to meet us,” she stated.
The SDF representatives instead met the controller of examinations and submitted their concerns. They raised issues regarding the increased age bar of 34 years, the roster system and the demand for transparent publication of results.
Chamling said, “We placed a written application demanding clarification on all the allegations and we have asked for the complete results of every aspirant — including written examination marks, physical test marks and the interview points of all candidates.”
She said the controller of examinations replied that they would need to wait until the chairman returns on the fifth, as no public statement could be made in his absence.
She added that many aspirants had placed their hopes in this examination after years of preparation, and their concerns should not be ignored.
“The main issue is that out of the 39 seats, a disproportionate number of candidates close to the ruling party have been selected. In the past, the Chief Minister has publicly said that those who work for the party for two months will be made Sub-Inspectors. That is a matter of deep concern,” she said.
Similarly, Citizen Action Party has also claimed that the process was biased in favour of candidates linked to the ruling party, stating that more than 80 per cent of the 39 posts have reportedly gone to individuals affiliated with the Sikkim Krantikari Morcha.
