Guwahati: The North East Human Rights Organization (NEHRO) has asked the CBI to look into the issue of the Arunachal Pradesh Public Service Commission’s Assistant Engineer (Civil) exams’ paper leaks (APPSC).
The NEHRO criticised the APPSC and the state administration, claiming they were complicit in corruption and hampering the future of young people.
The organization stated, “The recent leakage of AE (Civil) proves that from the top of the government to its lowest level is corrupted. And there are very possibilities of involvement of influences over the commission to achieve under benefits by higher ups.”
They further said, “The sealed APPSC office is a sign of failed governance and we have no faith in the Government. We demand immediate suspension of all the members of the Commission including its Chairman /Secretary and initiate CBI Inquiry for free and fair investigation of the case.”
Notably, the APPSC said that it would hold new exams for the positions of assistant engineer (civil) and that a new exam date would be revealed soon.
The APPSC cancelled the tests it held on August 26 and 27 to fill up to 33 assistant engineer (civil) positions on Tuesday.
