Hyderabad: Former minister and BRS MLA T Harish Rao claimed that allegations were being made regarding ministers and officials taking bribes from candidates for Group-1 posts in Telangana and demanded a judicial inquiry into the irregularities under the supervision of a sitting judge.
Harish Rao questioned the state government for planning to appeal the High Court’s verdict, which directed the re-evaluation of Group-1 answer sheets or cancellation and re-conduct of the exams.
He termed this move as “shameful” and said the government “should correct its mistakes instead of trying to escape responsibility through appeals.”
