CBI Arrests Officials in Chhattisgarh Civil Service Exam Probe
Imagine a test to get important government jobs in Chhattisgarh.
Some people in charge of the test are accused of helping their family members cheat and get those jobs.
The CBI, a special police force, is investigating.
They have arrested five people, including a former top government official and some of his family members.
These people are suspected of changing the test results to help their relatives pass and get jobs.
The CBI is keeping the arrested people for questioning until September 22nd.
This investigation started because the government was concerned about the fairness of the exam.
The CBI had previously arrested other officials connected to the case.
CBI arrested five people in connection with alleged irregularities in the Chhattisgarh Public Service Commission (CGPSC) exams.
The arrested include a former IAS officer and other officials implicated in the scandal.
