  • 'Which Actress is Tallest' Question in SSC Exam Paper


    Is this question will be fine for "Staff Selection Commission" or SSC?. SSC exam to make appointments in central ministries and other government departments.

    The Women's Commission has demanded an explanation for the "gender insensitive" question paper for the combined graduate level examination

    Mr. Bhattacharya chairman of SSC said in a statement today "It is improper, abominable, substandard... we are very upset and deeply sorry."

    The question on Bollywood was in a multiple choice section between a question on this year's Lok Sabha elections and one on the month in which Valentine's Day is celebrated. The candidates were asked who was the actress "tallest in height" among Huma Qureshi, Katrina Kaif, Deepika Padukone and Preity Zinta.

    Another section of the paper tested the deductive reasoning of candidates with the bizarre statement: "All women are cats, All cats are rats."

    Mr Bhattacharya said no one at the SSC had set the paper. Local teachers were appointed to set a bank of questions and a panel of experts chose from these to set a final paper, he said.

    The SSC has agreed to the demands of the Women's Commission that the two controversial questions not be considered for evaluation.
