TDP national president N. Chandrababu Naidu on March 15 (Friday) demanded a CBI investigation into the irregularities that had taken place in the conduct of the A.P. Public Service Commission (APPSC) Group-I Mains examination in 2018, saying that it was in blatant violation of No.3(ix) of the APPSC Rules.
Mr. Naidu called for removal and disqualification of those who joined the services, and requested the Governor and the Chief Secretary to ensure that justice was done for the affected aspirants.
Addressing the media, Mr. Naidu stressed the need to file cases against tainted officers who were allegedly involved in the irregularities. He alleged that Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy, Government Adviser Sajjala Ramakrishna Reddy, APPSC Chairman D. Gautam Sawang and Secretary (in-charge) P.S.R. Anjaneyulu and additional secretary (CMO) K. Dhanunjaya Reddy had a role in the scam. Also, he said several close associates of the Chief Minister were appointed as members of the APPSC.
