NEW DELHI: CBI has arrested five accused individuals in connection with its ongoing probe into the Chhattisgarh Public Service Commission (CGPSC) recruitment 'scam' case. They were produced before a court which remanded them to CBI custody for interrogation.
The case pertains to allegations against CGPSC officials resorting to favouritism in the selection process for various posts, including deputy collector, during the 2020-2022 recruitment exam.
The arrested individuals are the then CGPSC secretary Jeevan Kishore Dhruv, the then CGPSC controller of examination Arti Wasnik, deputy collectors Sumit Dhruv and Misha Kosle, and district excise officer Deepa Adil.
Interestingly, Sumit Dhruv is the son of Jeevan Kishore Dhruv, and Misha Kosle and Deepa Adil are relatives of former CGPSC chairperson Taman Sonwani, highlighting a potential nexus within the organisation.
CBI had filed an FIR on July 9 last year on the basis of a complaint which had alleged several anomalies in recruitments. It was alleged in FIR that the then commission chairperson, the then secretary and others had conducted examination and interview between 2020-2022 and had their relatives selected.
