Ranchi, Jharkhand (PTI): The Jharkhand High Court on Thursday stayed the operation of notifications cancelling the appointment of government employees through 11th to 13th Jharkhand Public Service Commission (JPSC) examinations.

The high court also stayed the operation of the order cancelling the appointments of food safety officers.
