Arunachal Pradesh to ask CBI to probe recruitment exam paper leak

The BJP government in Arunachal Pradesh has decided to ask the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to probe the question paper leak in a recruitment examination conducted by the Arunachal Pradesh Public Service Commission (APPSC).

The police in State capital Itanagar have so far arrested six people for allegedly leaking the question paper of the examination for the post of Assistant Engineer (Civil) conducted by the APPSC on August 26 and 27.

“The paper leak will be investigated thoroughly. We have thus decided to hand over the case to the CBI to ensure free, fair, impartial and swift investigation,” Home Minister and government spokesperson Bamang Felix told journalists.
