Jishnu Barua: Committee Inquiring APSC Scam To Submit Report In 1 Month
Guwahati: The committee probing into frauds involving the Assam Public Service Commission (APSC) will present their findings within a month, said chief secretary to the state government on Monday.
The investigating committee is probably going to present its report shortly, according to Chief Secretary Jishnu Barua today.
He also mentioned that a special gathering was going to happen soon. The report will be presented following the meeting, Barua added.
It may be noted that 67 people were previously charged in relation to the infamous APSC scandal that shook Assam.
Seven of them were APSC members and staff, while 60 of them were exam-appearing candidates.
The court had also declared two other accused, Sudeep Das and Rajib Pal as absconding from justice.
Rajib Pal is the brother of Rakesh Pal, while Sudeep Das was the personal assistant of Rakesh Pal.
Notably, the absence of evidence led to the acquittal of two of the accused in the case.
