The Karnataka State Open University Examinations Chancellor has lodged a police complaint with the Jayalakshmipura police station, Mysuru, against 6 persons who faked marks cards of post graduate degree, with an intention of getting promotion as Food Safety Inspectors with the Health and Family Welfare Department.
Sharanappa, Satish, Ramesh Reddy of Gangavathi, Kashi M Vali of Sandur, Shivayogappa of Malla B village, Surapur taluk, Yadgir district, and Mallanna S of Shiravala village, Shahapur taluk, Yadgir, working as Food Safety Inspectors at the Health and Family Welfare Department were found to have submitted fake marks cards of post graduate degree to avail promotion.
Applications were called for the posts of 87 Food safety Inspectors on 28.8.2016 from the Karnataka State Food Safety Commissioner's officer. MSc Chemistry was mandatory to apply.
