Advocate Harendra Neel told the Court that the paper of SI Recruitment 2021 examination, held September 13-19, 2021, was leaked in which case many trainee sub-inspectors were arrested. The petition said that because of the huge irregularities, the examination should be declared illegal and recruitment be cancelled. A re-exam should be carried out of the candidates .

There has also been a request to monitor the Special Operations Group (SOG) investigation, call for the SOG investigation report and give age relaxation to the involved candidates who have now crossed the age limit.
