Himachal Government Accused of Ignoring Paper Leak Investigations, Protecting Culprits

Jairam alleged that on the contrary, the Sukhu government in Himachal Pradesh ignored the recommendations of the CBI in the paper leak cases. Instead of taking action against the officers whose role was questioned, they were appointed to important posts. There was also an attempt to suppress the investigation report. He referred to the recent police recruitment examination and said that the evidence of the paper leak came out, the money trail was caught, but the government tried to suppress the case. He claimed that there were allegations of mass cheating and the affected students told the details of the whole incident in public, but the government did not feel the need to listen to them. The Leader of the Opposition challenged Rahul Gandhi that if the Congress really cares about the interests of the youth, then it should first seek answers from the Chief Minister of Himachal as to why efforts were made to save the culprits in the paper leak cases. He said that the government which patronizes those who play with the future of the youth, has no right to talk about morality.
