Members of the All India Democratic Youth Organisation (AIDYO) staged a protest outside the Deputy Commissioners’ office in Kalaburagi city on Friday, demanding a probe into the alleged leak of question papers for the examinations conducted by the Karnataka Public Service Commission (KPSC). District president of the organisation Mahesh Nadgouda, in a memorandum addressed to Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, alleged that the question paper for General Knowledge examination for candidates appearing for the posts of First Division Assistant and Second Division Assistant was shared by several persons on social media, hours before the examination began on October 4.

Mr. Nadgouda alleged that the paper leak had affected deserving candidates who appeared for the examinations. He urged the State government to conduct re-examination and demanded stringent punishment for those involved.
