Jagan Seeks CBI Probe Into Mega DSC ‘Scam’, Demands Lokesh’s Resignation
He questioned how the candidate cleared certificate verification despite being allegedly ineligible and sought to know who had influenced officials.
Vijayawada:Former Chief Minister and YSRC president Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy has demanded a CBI probe into alleged irregularities in the 2025 Mega DSC recruitment, alleging that ineligible candidates were appointed at the expense of deserving aspirants. In a post on X, he also demanded HRD minister Nara Lokesh’s resignation and questioned Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu over the alleged failure to order an independent investigation.
Citing a case in Kurnool district, Jagan Mohan Reddy alleged that a BC candidate who required 75 marks in the TET but secured only 65 was appointed as an SGT under the sports quota. He questioned how the candidate cleared certificate verification despite being allegedly ineligible and sought to know who had influenced officials.
Jagan Mohan Reddy alleged that similar violations had occurred in several districts and said officials under the government could not conduct an independent inquiry. He said the YSRC was fighting the matter in court on behalf of deserving candidates.
He also alleged that GO No. 4 was used to fill 40 Forest Department sports quota posts without an examination, despite recruitment for 814 posts having progressed through notification and Mains examinations. He alleged that recruitment to the remaining 774 posts was halted to prevent the alleged irregularities from surfacing.
