The Arunachal Pradesh government has recommended a probe by the Central Bureau of Investigation into the State civil service exam paper leak two months ago.
Organisations such as the influential All Arunachal Pradesh Students’ Union and political parties had been mounting pressure on the Pema Khandu government for transferring the case from local investigators to the CBI.
State Vigilance Commissioner, Kaling Tayeng said a letter has been sent to the Central government’s Personnel and Training Department seeking a CBI investigation into the leaking of the question paper for the recruitment of assistant engineer (civil) conducted by the Arunachal Pradesh Public Service Commission (APPSC) on August 26 and 27.
