Guwahati, 21st August: Controversial APS officer Rumir Timungpi, who was embroiled in the Assam Public Service Commission (APSC) scam, has reportedly been appointed to a new role within the National Investigation Agency (NIA), raising eyebrows and igniting discussions.
According to reliable reports, Timungpi, a figure mired in controversy, has been designated as the additional superintendent of police (ASP) within the NIA.
It’s worth noting that Timungpi’s name surfaced in connection with the sprawling recruitment scandal that rocked Assam, implicating numerous individuals. The Justice (retired) Biplab Kumar Sarma Commission, which led the investigation into the scandal, identified Timungpi as having secured his recruitment through questionable means.
The findings of the Justice Sarma Commission’s report unveiled a startling revelation – Timungpi had not even managed to pass the APSC examination.
This unexpected appointment has cast a spotlight on the state government’s stance in this matter, leaving observers perplexed and questioning the rationale behind such a decision.
As discussions unfold surrounding this controversial appointment, concerns are raised over the implications it might have on the integrity of institutions and the perceptions of fairness and accountability.
