The CBI has registered an FIR against a former Chhattisgarh Public Service Commission chairman and others in connection with an alleged "nepotism" racket in which "ineligible" family members of politicians, PSC officials and public servants were recruited in lucrative government jobs during the Congress rule.
Officials said CGPSC's former chairperson Taman Singh Sonwani, its ex-Secretary Jeevan Kishore Dhruv and a controller of examination have been booked for helping their sons, daughters, relatives and acquaintances score high in the merit list to ensure their recruitment as deputy collectors, deputy SPs, and other such posts.
It is alleged that manipulations took place in the 2022 CGPSC examination, the results of which were declared on May 11, 2023.
