NEW DELHI: Taking a firm stance against two candidates who took the Civil Services Exam 2022 and recently made false claims in the media that they had been recommended to all-India services on basis of the exam, the UPSC on Friday said it was contemplating criminal and disciplinary action against both the candidates after its probe found them to have forged their documents to buttress their claims.
Ms Aysha Makrani d/o Salimmuddin Makrani from Alirajpur, Madhya Pradesh, and Tushar from Rewari, Haryana had claimed to have cleared CSE 2022 by posing as genuinely-selected candidates with similar names – Ayasha Fatima from Dewas, Madhya Pradesh, and Tushar Kumar from Bihar respectively – and quoting the same roll number as the latter.
The confusion as to who was the genuinely-selected candidate between them, was widely reported in the media, with UPSC being blamed for the alleged “error”.
On Friday, UPSC put out a statement, clarifying that the claims of Aysha Makrani and Tushar were fake and that they had forged their documents to back these claims. “By doing so both Ms. Aysha Makrani and Shri Tushar have acted in contravention of the provisions of the Rules of the Civil Services Examination, 2022 notified by the Government of India. Therefore, in accordance with the provisions of the examination rules, the UPSC is contemplating both criminal as well as disciplinary penal action against both candidates for their fraudulent acts,” it stated.
