Karnataka High Court Orders Activation of SIT for KPSC Recruitment Scam ProbePreviousNext

The Karnataka High Court has directed the state government to promptly activate the Special Investigation Team (SIT) probing alleged recruitment frauds at the Karnataka Public Service Commission (KPSC). Following a Supreme Court order to uphold the SIT and replace its chief, the state proposed four senior IPS officers for leadership and three Inspector General of Police officers as replacements for certain members. The court allowed stakeholders two days to review these nominations and emphasized the need to notify the SIT as a police station to facilitate investigation progress.
