An IAS officer, Gyanendra Kumar Gangwar, is detained by investigators in connection with irregularities reported in a Karnataka Public Service Commission (KPSC) recruitment examination. NDTV reports that he is linked to the probe because he previously served as the Controller of Examinations at the KPSC when the alleged irregularities took place.
Times of India adds that the CID detains Gangwar to investigate his possible involvement in the recruitment discrepancies and his role during the inquiry. The outlet also reports that the Enforcement Directorate had earlier searched KPSC offices in connection with money-laundering allegations, and that Gangwar’s earlier absence was cited as creating confusion in parts of the case. Across reports, the detention is presented as a step in an ongoing investigation into examination-related irregularities and associated allegations.
