Kerala PSC internal probe finds anomalies in evaluation
An internal probe by the Kerala Public Service Commission revealed significant evaluation anomalies in a high-level recruitment exam for the State Planning Board. Nearly 230 candidates were affected by errors in the digital marking system, prompting a comprehensive investigation.
Why it matters
The incident raises concerns about the integrity and administrative efficiency of public recruitment processes in the state.
A probe by the Internal Vigilance Wing of the Kerala Public Service Commission has found anomalies in the valuation of ten questions in the examination for the Chief (Industry and Infrastructure) post in the State Planning Board. According to the interim report filed by the vigilance officer, the answers to nine questions for any of the 228 candidates were not evaluated due to an error in assigning these questions for evaluation in the On Screen Marking (OSM) system.
The report objectively covers the findings of the internal probe and the subsequent public controversy.
