A complaint has been lodged before the Lokayukta against the Karnataka State Co-operative Apex Bank Limited Chief Executive Officer, Ashwath Gowda and his personal secretary, Manjunath, for “not selecting 77 clerk and cashier positions on merit” as mandated by a government order.
The complainant - M T Girish, working secretary of Karnataka State Human Rights Commission - has alleged that marks have been tweaked to ensure selection of some candidates.
The complaint also stated that the officials of the bank increased the number of vacancies to 102 from 77, without getting the sanction of the government.
