Satish Waghole Appointed MPSC Chairperson Amid Paper Leak Inquiry in Maharashtra
Maharashtra Public Service Commission (MPSC) member Satish Baban Waghole has been given additional charge as chairperson during Vivek Bhimanwar's leave amid allegations of exam paper leaks and irregularities. Following a 10-day protest by aspirants in Pune demanding Bhimanwar's removal and other recruitment-related issues, the Maharashtra government formed a committee led by IAS officer Tukaram Mundhe to investigate the allegations and review the tenures of current and past commission officials. Bhimanwar has taken leave pending the inquiry's outcome.
