ED files complaint in Chhattisgarh recruitment scam

The Enforcement Directorate (ED) filed a complaint with the relevant authorities, accusing individuals involved in a recruitment scam operating in Chhattisgarh of violating money‑laundering and foreign exchange laws. The complaint, reported by Pioneer Daily, says the scam allegedly manipulated selection processes for government jobs, resulting in unlawful financial gains for the conspirators. Investigators are said to be gathering evidence and may file a charge sheet pending further inquiry. Officials from the ED declined to name the accused or disclose the amount of money involved, citing the ongoing nature of the probe. The department has urged any witnesses or victims to come forward. The Chhattisgarh state administration has previously announced a crackdown on fraudulent recruitment practices, and this filing adds a federal dimension to the investigation. The case underscores growing concerns over recruitment fraud across India, prompting calls for stricter oversight of hiring procedures in the public sector.
