The Enforcement Directorate has detained two individuals in Chhattisgarh as part of probes into the state’s public service commission and a district magistrate forum, alleging a ₹3 crore paper‑leak scheme and a ₹31 crore commission network.
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has taken into custody two suspects in Chhattisgarh in connection with ongoing investigations into the Chhattisgarh Public Service Commission (CGPSC) and a district magistrate forum (DMF). The arrests were made as part of a broader crackdown on alleged corruption linked to recruitment processes.
According to the ED, the two individuals are accused of facilitating a paper‑leak operation valued at roughly ₹3 crore, compromising the integrity of the CGPSC examinations. In addition, investigators allege that they were part of a commission‑earning network that generated about ₹31 crore through illicit payments.
The agency has not disclosed the identities of the arrested persons or the specific stages of the investigation. No further details on the evidence or the next steps have been released, and the ED indicated that the probe remains active.
Authorities have emphasized that any attempt to manipulate recruitment or extract commissions will be pursued rigorously under existing anti‑corruption laws. The case underscores heightened scrutiny of public‑service recruitment in the state.
The arrests are expected to lead to further inquiries into other individuals possibly linked to the alleged scheme, though official statements on additional actions are pending.
