BREAKING: UPSC Takes Action Against IAS Probationer Puja Khedkar; Files FIR And Issues Show Cause Notice


(MENAFN- AsiaNet News) The Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) on Friday took decisive action against Puja Khedkar, an IAS probationer implicated in fraudulent activities. The Commission has initiated criminal prosecution by filing an FIR against her and has issued a show cause notice regarding the cancellation of her candidacy for the Civil Services Examination 2022.

Puja Khedkar is facing scrutiny over her disability and Other Backward Class (OBC) certificates submitted during her Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) candidature, along with her conduct while serving at the Pune collector's office.

Amid the controversy, the government on Tuesday suspended her 'district training program'. Previously transferred to Washim as a supernumerary assistant collector from Pune, Khedkar has now been summoned back to the Lal Bahadur Shastri National Academy of Administration in Mussoorie for "necessary action."

Further details awaited.
