TDP MLC P. Ashok Babu was arrested by the CID personnel late on the night of February 10 on the charge of forging his service records for promotion when he worked in the Department of Commercial Taxes.

Reports said that following a complaint filed by the president of the A.P. Commercial Taxes Employees’ Association B. Mehar Kumar with Lok Ayukta charging the MLC and former APNGOs’ leader with tampering with the service record to project himself as a Commerce graduate while he had done only a diploma in Computers, the Lokayukta, after an enquiry with the department officials, directed the Special Chief Secretary to file a case with the CB-CID.
