IndiaAn IAS officer, Gyanendra Kumar Gangwar, who was under scrutiny due to searches by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) related to an alleged recruitment scam involving the Karnataka Public Service Commission (KPSC), appeared before the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) for questioning. The CID is investigating potential irregularities in the recruitment process of veterinary officers and Gangwar's role during his tenure as KPSC examination controller. Searches at Gangwar's residence and his family home in Uttar Pradesh were conducted as part of the probe into financial irregularities. Gangwar had requested leave citing his father's health but his absence raised concerns, prompting the CID to summon him. The situation led to political discussions in Karnataka, with Union Minister HD Kumaraswamy questioning Home Minister Priyank Kharge about the government's handling of the matter. Suspended KPSC chairman Shivashankarappa Sahukar has also been questioned by the CID. Investigators aim to clarify the sequence of events and identify any officials or intermediaries involved in the alleged misconduct.
