The FIR was filed against 16 individuals, ranging from the Chairman, Secretary, members, controller of examination, and other officials of the commission.
Addressing the media person at the press club here today, one of the aspirants said that besides anomalies, the deprived aspirants strongly believe that there have been unfair means in recruitment as Deputy Secretary Taket Jerang has been arrested by the SIC in connection to AE (Civil) paper leakage case.
He said that Jerang was the Controller of the Exam for the post of ACF conducted by APPSC in the month of July 2022. Jerang has been arrested for selling question paper to his kith & kin. Therefore, the aspirants are very much convinced of his involvement in the ACF examination.
“Moreover, the commission had put questions out of the syllabus during the screening recruitment test. The matter was informed to the then APPSC secretary Jayanta Kumar Ray, who even accepted the mistake but never rectified it,” he said.
He said that it was clearly mentioned that only GS and GK will be asked in prelims. But, surprisingly the commission questioned elementary maths, English grammar, and even C-SAT questions.
The deprived candidates demanded the SIC should question the commission on who prepared the question paper for the ACF examination and also disclose the names of 55 candidates selected in the prelims examination.
