GS2 (Polity and Governance): Constitutional bodies and transparency in public recruitment. Exam malpractice erodes the merit principle under Articles 315-323 and public trust; the provisions on independence (fixed tenure, protected removal) support credibility. The way forward lies in secure paper-setting and distribution, technology-based monitoring, quick action on leaks and strong accountability.
