CHSL 2018 UFM Case

UFM stands for UnFair Means.

According to SSC UFM rule, any kind of personal information/real or imaginary names/addresses or any clue that leads to any candidate in the answer sheet is not allowed. Candidates using this type of information will come under UFM and will be awarded 0 marks or be disqualified. Revealing identity is strictly prohibited.

As we know the tier 2 of SSC CHSL is a descriptive paper in which we have to write an essay and a letter/precis.
While writing the letter in the descriptive paper several students inadvertently wrote some address, pin code, or some name. As per SSC, writing any kind of information on the paper applies Unfair Means(UFM). This was not mentioned in SSC CHSL 2018 notification although it was mentioned in the question paper.

As it was a very new rule in the descriptive paper many students were unaware of it.

After the declaration of the tier 2 result, thousands of students were disqualified in the exam and it became highlighted news.

After several grievances of the students, SSC appointed a committee to inquire into it.
After the report of the committee, every single student who was disqualified due to UFM was given a chance to participate in the next tier of the exam.

Due to this SSC CHSL/CGL got delayed by about 1 year.

What are some examples of UFM that can lead to disqualification of paper?

    UFM basically SSC ke descriptive paper me lagta hai. Descriptive paper offline mode me hota hai aur iski copy bhi physically check ki jaati hai. To cheating ya fraud se bachne ke liya UFM lagaya jata hai.
    Jaise Kisi student ne answer copy me apna naam/adress/city kuch v likh diya aur ye ho sakta hai koi hint ho copy check krne wale ke liyea jis se us stuedent ko jyada no. mil jaye.
    To ise hi rokne ke liyea kisi v trah ka personal information answer book pr likhna allowed nhi hota. Koi naam, adress ya city agar galti se v likh diya to aapko disqualify kr diya jayega.
