PSI recruitment only after completion of CID probe: Praveen Sood

Following a massive protest by over 54,000 aspiring Police Sub Inspector (PSI) candidates at the Freedom Park over alleged large-scale corruption, Director General and Inspector General of Police Praveen Sood on Sunday announced that further action would be taken only after the completion of the CID investigation.

This means the fate of candidates will remain undecided until the probe is completed and a report is submitted. Many candidates are worried that they will lose their eligibility as it was their last attempt .

Protesters are demanding a re-examination and want strict action to be taken against the people involved in the scam. So far, seven people have been arrested in connection with the PSI recruitment scam including four successful candidates and three invigilators from the centre at Kalaburagi. Four people were nabbed on Saturday.
