Centre Takes Action Against Pune IAS Trainee | Centre To Verify Puja Khedkar's Fraud Candidature
Puja Khedkar, the Maharashtra probationary IAS officer who was transferred over alleged misuse of power, demanded a separate office, a car, and a house for herself before joining as Assistant Collector in Pune, her WhatsApp chat with an official at the collectorate revealed. The chat shows her directing the officer to arrange what she demanded before her joining on June 3.

"Pls get the designated cabin m vehicle done before I join on 3rd. Later there will be no time. If it is not possible let me know, I will talk to collector sir accordingly," she told the officer.

The District Collector had flagged these unusual demands to the Chief Secretary. In his report, he suggested that it would be inappropriate to continue Khedkar’s training in Pune and mentioned that it might lead to administrative complications.

More scrutiny should be done and booked if found guilty... shameless creature...

[SD-fkbt]

Problem is she joined IAS not to serve but to be served. If a poor man had done this he would be charged under 420.

[amritamuttoo]

She should be severly punished.Removed from service.

[dr.madanmohan]

She should be arrested and punished for misleading the government 🙄 🤔 😒 😏 🤣 😑 🙄 and UPSC members also should be punished

[saheb]

She is a fraud and must be dismissed. Strict legal actions must be taken against her.

[rogerhouston]

It's not her fault.. Fault lies with Upsc, Dopt and political support to her.

[divyapratapjamwal]

Such creamy layer criteria should be brought in for SCs and STs in the absence of which those SCs and STs who are really in need of reservation are being denied justice...also pls scrutinise EWS and PD...Thanks Jai Hind

[lone_wolf]

Rip to all thoese coching institutes who called her for motivational seminar

[sb]

What about her father's disproportionate assets ? All property should be confiscated under Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA). And all reservations should be scrapped in India.

[tejasdeshpande]

Zagade sir is damn ethically upright person. He used to beautifully write a column in Sakal paper's Saptrang weekly about experiences of ethical dilemmas he faced in 2020.
Very right person called in by Rajdeep to talk on this issue🙏.

[azharnawab]

Puja Khedkar's demands for special privileges before assuming her duties as an IAS officer are a disgrace to the principles of public service. This behavior reeks of entitlement and blatant misuse of authority. It not only reflects poorly on her integrity but also raises serious doubts about her suitability for a position meant to serve the public interest. Immediate and rigorous investigation is imperative to uphold the ethical standards that must define our civil service.

[debayansarkar]

People show that their parents are separated and claim these benefits by virtue of their parents' divorce.
This has been happening since time immemorial. Will it ever stop? Or is it completely legal without any consequence.

[rajeshbehera]

OPPOSITION SHOULD RAISE THIS ISSUE AGAINST SELECTION SYSTEM OF INDIA.. AFTER NTA, UPSC SHOULD CLARIFY THE TRANSPARENCY OF EXAMINATION AND SELECTION

[KevinMarc-pttx]

If the system is abused, the best is to take away quotas and special treatment. If one has a mental disability, how can a person serve the public?

[ASHISHBHA]

They will claim that their high income is from agriculture, which is not taxable and varies annually allowing them to justify their qualification for OBC non-creamy layer status despite an annual income of ₹40 crore. Regarding the fake medical test, it is more an issue with the doctor and the officers who verified her eligibility.

[vaishnavisingh]

Government needs to seriously take up this seriously especially the standard of UPSC hiring any which ways they hire maximum corrupt officers is this a right kind of A CHANGE

[vinodjoseph]

Her father should also be booked and his disproportionate assets to be verified by ED. How can an IAS officer amass so much of wealth from his salary? Every one understands this. God alone can save this country from this kind of corruption, which has been institutionalized.😢😢

State PSC recruitment: "Hold my beer"

[jayakumaris]

She should be punished including her parents, the revenue peoples who had given certificates and the UPSC officials who had made loopholes for her fraud appointment. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[jayakumaris]

Supreme Court should take an action on it and give clarity judgment. Please . My son cleasred 4 Prelims, but he couldn't clear his mains because of these administration. Govt has to take severe action on UPSC. My son is very disappointed and discouraged . He is in frustration. Really the Govt will be answerable for my son's frustration . God knows everything and he will do the judgement with full explanations , what is happening in UPSC for the last deacades . Nature is Goddess, she will make everything clear .
