The Jharkhand High Court stays the state government’s notifications that cancel government staff appointments linked to the 11th to 13th JPSC examinations. The court issues the stay while hearing petitions challenging the government’s move.

During the proceedings, the court directs the state government to file its response by September 15, which is also set as the next date of hearing. The order pauses the effect of the cancellation notifications, keeping the status quo in place as the case is examined.

Both outlets report the same core development: the court’s interim stay and the timeline for the state’s reply. One report also notes the court’s order in the context of broader recruitment activity referenced alongside the JPSC-linked appointments, but the shared focus remains on the stay of cancellation notifications pending further arguments and review.
