Union Minister Pralhad Joshi accused the Congress government in Karnataka of shielding a missing IAS officer, Gyanendra Kumar Gangwar, who is reportedly linked to the KPSC recruitment scam. Joshi demanded the officer be traced and produced before investigating agencies, questioning how a senior bureaucrat could disappear without the government's knowledge.
Joshi alleged that the state machinery was involved in protecting him, and that the government was both responsible for and a beneficiary of the scandal. Gangwar was the Controller of Examinations at the Karnataka Public Service Commission when irregularities in a veterinary officer recruitment examination were discovered. The Enforcement Directorate had raided Gangwar's premises in Bengaluru and Uttar Pradesh, and allegations of large-scale irregularities and illegal financial collection from job aspirants emerged.
Joshi claimed that if the ED or Criminal Investigation Department took Gangwar into custody, the entire government scandal would be exposed.
